I am selling my HP DeskJet 500C printer. $400 or best offer takes it. If you are interested, please leave me a reply here on CIS and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. — Fred Kohler —
Which 8087 for A2088? Message #104399
From: Fred Kohler The Amiga Forum · Hardware January 20, 1988 6:40 PM
Thanks for your reply, Doug! I ordered a plain 8087 earlier today (not an 8087-1, -2, -3, etc.). The speed on the plain 8087 seems to be about the same as the speed of the Bridgeboard. —Fred—
Epson Driver Message #96188
From: Fred Kohler The Amiga Forum · Hardware December 1, 1987 10:26 PM
Mike, I have an Epson LQ-800 printer and am not familiar with the differences between the LQ-800 and the LQ-850. If my driver doesn't work with the LQ-850, it's probably due to the fact that Epson went and changed the printer commands. — Fred —
Music Software Message #46300
From: Fred Kohler The Amiga Forum · Audiophile December 30, 1986 6:19 PM
Bela, I have a question for Mimetics. How do you convert SoundScape files to SMUS format for use with DMCS? I have version 1.0 of SoundScape and there is a SMUS conversion program on the disk but I didn't get any documentation on how to use that program with the…
#DMCS upload Message #46298

Karl, I have a Yamaha FB01 FM Sound Generator. Hook it up to the Amiga and Voila!—>12 voices! (4 from the Amiga and 8 from the FB01). —- Fred —
#DMCS-users? Message #46296
From: Fred Kohler The Amiga Forum · Audiophile December 30, 1986 6:07 PM
Karl, I am using a Yamaha DX-100 with DMCS and it also crashes the system sometimes. How do you convert SoundScape files to SMUS format? I can convert SMUS files to SoundScape tracks using the converter program supplied with SoundScape but I can't convert things such as SimpleDemo from SScape…
Printer Driver Bug Message #35813
From: Fred Kohler Forum unknown · Programming October 9, 1986 10:08 PM
Does anybody know why the Epson Preferences driver gives a line feed initially before printing any text when the PRT: device is used? Is this a bug in the printer driver or in the PRT: device itself? The problem with this bug is that once the printer is finished printing,…

Left Margin Bug Message #34555

Has anybody noticed that you can't set a left margin of zero (0) in Preferences? Every time I enter a zero, it changes back to a one! The problem is that when you print something, there is an extra space at the left hand corner of the paper. Try setting…

Thanks Charlie. After reading through the Lattice-C manual last night I included the lc.lib and didn't get the errssage anymore. Now if I could just figure out how to triple the graphics data from programs such as DPaint so I can take advantage of 24-pin dot graphics available on my…

Scott, my problem was that I forgot to link the render.c file to the C runtime library. As far as VMI is concerned, I'm not sure what that refers to but I think it has to do with vertical line spacing. You should only have to change the values in…

Rich, I'm not sure if the graphics commands are the same for the LQ-1500 as the LQ-800 but I believe that they are. The driver I uploaded sends an ESC L to the printer whenever it prints graphics. On the LQ-800 an ESC L selects double-density 8-pin graphics. At this…
