I have owned an imagewriter // for over two years....I have however only recently bought a color ribbon for it......I personally have only found TWO programs that use this capability.....Print Shop (to do cards ect...) and 816 Paint (to print out HiRes/DHR pictures) However I have also managed to modify Apple works to print in several colors...In answer to your question....Color printing is useful....but the support is limited.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ARPA: pro-generic.nosc.mil!jgraham | INet: crash!pro-generic!jgraham | UUCP: crash!pro-generic!jgraham | -|- Proline: jgraham@pro-generic | Jonathan A.

I just got a color ribbon around the first week in January and a friend had had Prince for quite a while and let me try it out (he had no color printer). I used it to print out some GIF pics (DHR, from a //c) but the results were not too hot for most of the pictures. Also he had an old dos 3.3 (well it was kinda dos 3.3) version, so I had to first use iigif to convert the pics to DHR, then CONVERT to move to a dos 3.3 disk, then print. it was kind of a pain, but it worked. Which version of print shop prints in color? The newest version I'd seen is from a few years ago, probably before 1986. I haven't been much "into" print shop. Andy

The GS version of Print Shop prints in color on an Imagewriter II at SHR resolution, I believe. >Andy >---------- Bill Winchester Cupertino, California winch@hpihoah.HP.COM
