Actually, the drivers are sold in groups---the laser printer
series (which includes the DeskJet), the 9-pin series for Epson
and compatibles, and the 24-pin series for the NEC P6 and Epson LQ.
(Others on request.)  It is possible the laser driver package you
saw in the store did not include the DeskJet because the DeskJet is
such a recent addition---in such a case, you can either buy the
package from the dealer and get a free update from me, or go
directly through me.  (Anyone who buys a package from a dealer and
gets `old' software gets a free update from me . . .)
