Here's my dilemma: when my printer quit, I thought I could just buy another one and plug it in.
That was naïve. When I got to the store, I was told that none of the printers currently for sale would work with OS 9. "Why not?" I asked. "It's the drivers," I was told. "The printers just won't work. So, just forget about it." That was all the answer I could get. OK, I know I should have switched to OS X completely years ago. But I have a lot of files on the OS 9 side of my partitioned drives (the other sides being OS X), and it's a lot more convenient to print from OS 9. It will be a big job to reorganize my files so I can easily find and print them from the OS X side of the computer. Has anybody else had this problem? Is there anything I can do about this? And is the problem that nobody has the drivers available for downloading, or that the drivers (if you got them) are not compatible with the current printer hardware and software? --Constance Warner ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
