Shawn, I am presently using an HP 500C printer with both my Amiga 4000 and Amiga 2000 without problems. I use a driver called Super_DJC2 available from Creative Focus Box 580 Chenango Bridge, NY 13745-0580. Phone (607) 648-4082. Although I have ProWrite, I do not use it, preferring instead Final Copy II. This driver/Printer combination works fine to produce color prints from DPaint IV and both black-and-white and color output from Final Copy II. I also believe I have used the HP_500C driver that comes with AmigaDOS 2.1 without problems in both DPaint IV and Final Copy II, but that was so long ago that I may not be remembering correctly. In any case, I find the Super DJC2 driver to produce better output on the 500C than the Commodore driver. One final comment: make certain you have checked the appropriate printer preferences on both the printer and Printer graphics screens. Hope this helps.
