#EPSON printer
Message #166087
Wolf, Thanks for responding to my plea for help. I will be very much interested in Studio 2 when it is out. How will you let us know? I guess I have expected too much after using MS Word and WordPerfect 6 with scalable fonts on the MS DOS platforms.…
Steve Thanks for the info on muidev.lha. Barry ** Barry Balderston AMIGA 2000/2.1 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **

Hi! Does anyone know where I can find muixxdev.lha? I have the mui21usr.lha but it seems I also need the above file. I would appreciate any help. Thanks Barry ** Barry Balderston AMIGA 2000/2.1 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **
Karl, Thanks, yes I would like to be kept informed on the new Studio 2.0 drivers! Do they replace the drivers that Commodore have out? Is Studio 2.0 a package of print drivers or other things too? Barry ** Barry Balderston AMIGA 2000/2.1 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra…
Gary, Thanks for the quick response! Based on what you stated it sounds like I should be using a good non-proportional font. What do you recommend? Thanks, Barry ** Barry Balderston AMIGA 2000/2.1 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **
#EPSON printer
Message #165735
Hi! I hope someone can help. I just bought an EPSON "ActionLaser" 1500 for my AMIGA 2000 using 2.1. I have tried Pro Wite 3.2 and Excellence with the same results. I am using the print driver "HP Laser Jet" as suggested in the EPSON manual as one of many…

Message #165197
Hi! Does anyone have experience with the EPSON ActionLaser 1100? What print driver should be used? I would appreciate any advice on this matter. Thanks, Barry ** Barry Balderston AMIGA 2000/2.1 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **
Steve No sweat – at least I got a response. Barry ** Barry (Baldy) Balderston (602) 459-2719 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **

Steve, Again thanks for your reply, but as Andy Levy has stated it was not on my disks either. I have downloaded it and everything is five by. Thanks to you both. Barry ** Barry (Baldy) Balderston (602) 459-2719 ** ** 2144 Golf Links Road, Sierra Vista, AZ 85635 **
Leslie, Found it! Thanks, I'll order it right away while limited supplies last. BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ

Message #20400
Hi! Is there a program available in the library that I can download to play Deluxe Music Songs that works with 1.3? Thanks, BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
Hi! Do you have any idea when Imagine 3.0 will be released? As a registered owner of Imagine 1.0 do you know how much it will cost to upgrade to 3.0 when it is released? Thanks, BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
Pete, I enjoyed Bill's and your comments, they have been most enlightning. No, I probably would not attend classes at that expense, although the desire is there the need is not. Take Care! BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
Bill, I agree, a comprehensive manual would be nice and I hope we get there someday. Great chatting with you too. Take care! BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
Bill, I hope your right. It would be real competitive out there if we hobbyists decided to become Pros. Besides, it is the huge demand that hobbyists have put upon some market areas that have caused manufactures to evolve their products into something much better for all. The 35mm camera…
Bill, Thanks for the reply, but I am a bit miffed. I guess your refering to my reply to J. Foust who was stating that he blamed the poor software and manuals on the hobbyists. I didn't misunderstand, I was implying that the problem shouldn't be blamed on the hobbyists…
Hi! I appreciated the advice also! Take Care! BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
DPAINT IV text
Message #15088
Owen, There are two ways to place text on a curve that is a little quicker and easier. The easiest way with a little, but perhaps acceptable distortion. Pick up the text that is going to line half or less of the circle as a brush. Place the brush over…
Owen, I agree that being able to wrap text around objects such as circles without distortion would be very useful. As I said the first time there may be a way to do it, I plan to investigate it more tomorrow. I enjoy using DPAINT IV and I think it…
J. Foust, I think if I had to categorize the AMIGA hobbyist I would place them in the silent majority, but I wouldn't blame the state of the AMIGA software industry on them. Maybe your right a hobbyist wouldn't recognize a good product if it stood on their keyboard. I…
J. Foust: Interesting philosophy. The reason that we have poor quality software and manuals is because 90% of the buyers are hobbyists. The market demand is be created by computer users who don't rely on the products but are concerned with lights that blink, screens that jump and speakers that…
Owen, Have you tried picking each letter of text up as a brush and rotating it? You will probably have to do it one letter at a time to avoid distortion. There may be a better way but I can't think of one right now. The video tapes that were…
Don, Once again, Thanks a lot! on the info about adapters. BARRY – via Whap! "Pro's from the Desert" Sierra Vista, AZ
Pete, It may be better minds, but their driven by comsumers and the almighty buck. The American consumer seems bent on perfection. Tell the consumer that something could be better and they will create a demand. With a demand someone will create an interface. Gadget consumers will buy anything that…
Don, Can you tell me who makes the MFMSCSI adapters? Thanks BARRY – via Whap!
Pete, You might be right but you may be under estimating the industry. Ma Bell was faced with the same problem years ago when digital switches were introduced and the digital multiplexers. They managed to develop an interface between the two systems. This is a problem we deal with on…
How cold is it Marty? Surely there will be a black interface box by that time (I hope). BARRY – via Whap!
Michael, Thanks a lot for answering my question. I'll pass the sad news to my friend, at the time he thought he was getting a good deal. Take care! BARRY – via Whap!
Michael, Hi! I couldn't help but notice your advice on this thread. Do you know if a Data Flyer will control a seagate ST 251-1? The drive is a 5.25 40MB to be used on an AMIGA 2000. I have a friend that would appreciate some info on this. Take…
Wayne, I'm in the same boat as a registered user up to Imagine 1.10. I haven't heard anything. Is the V2.0 Upgrade worth it? Take Care, Barry – via Whap!
Michael, Hello from Sierra Vista! Couldn't help seeing your message. Where can I find AMIGA support in Tucson? There is nothing down here except a few things at the Fort Huachuca PX. Please let me know if you get a chance. Barry – via Whap!
