4876.1SorryJOCKEY::LUDLAMATue Jul 09 1991 07:367
    Sorry folks screwed up on the first note,can anyone tell me how to
    delete it?. Any way ,I have recently aquired an old Oki data dot matrix
    printer, without too much hassle I have got it to print text files
    using the generic drive file found on the extras disk.However what I
    need to do is print graphics but I cannot find a drive file on the
    extras disk that works.Can anyone tell me where I might find a suitable
    driver or if the Oki will print graphics at all.

If there isn't an existing driver for it you may be table to generate a driver
with the PRTDRVGEN program. I seem to remember it is a shareware application.

Of course you'll need documentation on the printer escape sequences etc.

Fish 90 sounds too early. There were a couple of versions of the program and
there may be a latter one than that ???? I'll have a look tonight.
