so do I. Please let us know if you're lucky or not...

I got the printer yesterday, and once I figured out that it didn't like the
printer sharing device that I had been using to have two computers
connected via the parallel port, it worked straightaway with my Hades.

I can print from Papyrus fine (using MintNet/N_AES) without any need to
change any printer drivers etc, and I can also print from Cubase running
in single TOS.

The quality is excellent, and the printer is much faster than the HP
deskjet 600 which is replaces.

I have been able to connect the other computer via the USB port which
this printer also has.

It was not a cheap option as printers go these days, (130 UK pounds) but
it is designed to be used by a small business, so I hope it will give
several years of service.

Thanks to all for the helpful suggestions while I was choosing which
printer to get.

Cheers
