I am considering a DECjet 1000 for attaching to my ST (Employee
purchase scheme makes it attractive financially).
Has anyone any comments regarding its quality versus other more obvious
ST printers like the Canon BJ10, the Star 'whatever it's called' etc.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the DECjet speaks HP Deskjet
Plus (without the add on Epson emulator pack - another 70 pounds!) -
what is the availability of drivers for this nowadays? Especially for
packages: 1stword+ and DEGAS.
Thanks in advance,
Ian.

| 1318.1 | not for Wordplus | UFHIS::BFALKENSTEIN | Fri Oct 09 1992 07:19 | 11 | |
Having a LaserJet (and friends of mine a DeskJet), I know that there
are some GDOS drivers around for both of them (for the use with
Timeworks or GEMdraw etc). For both HP printers there are no Wordplus
drivers that are able to do graphics (at least I'm looking since a
couple of months). Docs without graphics do just fine with the drivers
for Desk- or LaserJet. The newer programs (like Tempus Word etc) have
built-in HP-drivers which are really good in every aspect.

| 1318.2 | Jeff Lomicka's unjam.acc works great on the DECjet 1000 | BRSTR1::PIGEON | Alpha = (YB)^2 | Tue Jan 05 1993 12:17 | 13 |
This topic is also discussed in note 26.0
For my part the best tool that I have found up to now is a
accessory written by Jeff Lomicka called Unjam.acc (Unjam.zoo).
There is a note somewhere in this conference where he gives a pointer
to it. When loaded you get nice screen dumps on an half page.

Jeff, if you are reading this, thanks for sharing your programs with us

Yes, I'm reading still reading this conference. I also have a similar program for the Macintosh that I use when running with the GCR. The need to write "Unjam" is one of the reasons I'm now a Macintosh user. | |||||
