3053.0. "<...A1000 -> LJ250...How?..>" by NWD002::FREEMANRO () Fri Oct 27 1989 23:29

    Help!
    I have the use of an LJ250 here at work. But no cables or manuals.
    I can cobble up some cables if neccessary but would like to know
    what cable DEC makes that might handle the job.  My boss would like
    to use the Amiga to make some nice color graphics and then output
    them to the LJ250 as color slides. Makes for some presentations.
    I'm also using (still) DPaint I and I kinda lost touch with the
    Amiga.  But I'm getting back into it and need some advice. I have
    copied the HP_Paintjet driver from WB 1.3 to the paint disk. But
    how do I make preference see it?  I have plans to upgrade software
    later but could use some direction right now. Thanks in advance...

    You'll need the 1.3 printer.device file (located in DEVS:) as well as
    the actual 1.3 printer driver to take advantage of the enhanced print
    features of 1.3.
    
    Also, why not upgrade to DPaintIII (assuming DEC will pay for it)? 
    You'll be unnecessarily  handicapping yourself with an ancient version
    of DPaint I.
