	The V1.3 'Nec_Pinwriter' driver was written specifically for all
24-pin Nec Pinwriter printers.  It is identical to the EpsonQ driver with
the exception of also supporting the 360x360 dpi graphics mode of the
Pinwriter series printers.  It should work like a charm on your P5XL.

	Regards, David Berezowski

	PS. Although V1.3 Workbench/Extras is not out yet, the drivers
are available on some application packages.  Those that I'm aware of
are ProWrite 2.0, Professional Page 1.1, Shakespeare, and Excellence!
Please note that these packages are shipping with pre-release versions
of the device/drivers.
