Quoth tad@killer.DALLAS.TX.US (Tad Marko) in <6410@killer.DALLAS.TX.US>:
|I have been trying to straigten out a friends office ATs hard disks,
|getting all the programs and files organzed and such.  This guy uses
|Word Perfect 5.0, but either he doesn't have all the printer disks, 
|or there aren't any drivers for the Star NX-1000 and HP Desk Jet.
|Could someone email me these drivers if they exist (if this is legal)?
|
|Thanks,
|Tad

I don't have those drivers, but Word Perfect surely does.  If your 
friend's copy is registered, one of these phone numbers would be of
use to him. Word Perfect has a policy of proving free of charge
necessary drivers and updates that fix problems you may have - a 
commendable policy.  We have received tow upgrades already, one
they volunteered (when the Bitstreamfont installation package 
came out) and one I requested (that added F5 file selection to the
graphics filename field, and fixed a bug caused by very complex 
documents.  We have another one coming that fixes a minor spell 
checker bug... no charge.

I commend their policy, and would like to see it adopted as a 
standard.
