Dave,
I got some old drivers (newer than what I had, I think) and installed
them in XP compatibility mode. That seemed to work, although Thunderbird
wants to use landscape as a default. I also got the scan software
loaded, and can use Windows scan as a backup, so I think I'm OK.
I did get Jbase 3.4.7 working, so my world is much better now.

Aren’t forced upgrades delightful ? I have been using and hp deskjet
f-4180 scan/print/fax for a number of years now essentially just for
scanning. I bought it with a laptop a few years ago for $49. You
might be able to find one of these on ebay. I am using a Brother
laser to do all my printing including output from my jBase. I think
it was about $249 new, but again you might be able to get one from
ebay. I am still using my hp-III drivers for all my jb output. I have
found that if the printer can no longer keep up the the OS, then it is
not worth your time to try to find a patched solution.

*Subject:* [OT] Need Lexmark 6150 Multifunction Printer Software
Hey folks,
I have another somewhat OT need. My wife and I both have Lexmark 6150
multifunction printers. We use both the printing and scanning
functions. Copying is internal to the printer, so that still works,
and we don't need the fax capability (we have an internet solution for
that so long as we can scan documents). I don't even remember what the
5th function is, so we probably don't need it.
The problem is that I have moved to Win7 32 bit, and my wife will very
soon. Our printers aren't supported by Win7 and there are no drivers
available. Mine will print fairly well, but the print jobs won't
close. The multifunction software which came with the printers and is
needed for the scanner will not work on Win7.
These printers work fine, and we hate to just dispose of them, because
of the environmental impact (even recycling -it's good to be green),
and because we just can't afford to buy new printers. To get the
functions we need will cost somewhere between $60-$150 each. $60 is
very low-end. We are both disabled and have very minimal income.
Does anyone out there know of any software to enable the scanning
function, and/or a driver that will make the printer work better?
Thanks,
Charlie
