We are going to invest in workstations and X-terminals ( colour ), and we already have a number of HP paintjets. I wondered if anyone knew of public domain programs that can print an X screendump on a paintjet, something like xpr, I would thimnk, but for the paintjet. There is a product called EasyCopy that claims that they support all colour printers available. This product is made by autoGraph international San Jose. I would like comments on this product also. Tectronix have something called S-print, but this supports only their own printers, I was told. PBMPLUS produces colour postscript which might be useful, where do I get this ? Thanks -- Trygg A.

X11R4 xpr supports the HP Paintjet already, so you may have nothing to worry about. If you have other printers to worry about though then xpr on the Amiga, although it is part of a commercial package, might be worth serious consideration since it supports a very large variety of printers already. xpr on the Amiga supports the HP paintjet in two different ways. The standard -device pjet which uses a driver written by HP. and via -device amiga which uses a driver written by Commodore-Amiga. IMHBO the output using -device amiga is better than -device pjet. > >Trygg A. Eliassen BSc. Hons | trygg@nordic-offshore.no -- Dale Luck GfxBase/Boing, Inc. {uunet!cbmvax|pyramid}!amiga!boing!dale
