When it comes to OSX, Epson can pretty much just kiss my @#$%#. I never though much of their OS9 drivers either, the printers I had didn't even support desktop printing, and when you have 3 printers attached, that is a big deal. Lexmark OTOH supported desktop printing and the OSX drivers are really well done. They have the same functions as the Windows drivers, only mac-like. When was the last time you could say that the Mac drivers were as good as the Win box....hmmmm.
Sorry to rant, but Epson is on company that I would....mumble mumble grrrrrrrrrr. They do make a great color photo printer though..............damn. -Robyn On Thursday, October 31, 2002, at 11:18 AM, Mark Benson wrote: > Erm, it's a perfectly good printer thanks, and the drivers are very > good, as I said.
