I KNOW THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CD-ROM, BUT IT DOESNT SEEM TO FIT ANYWHERE ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. HAS ANYONE HEARD OF A SOFTWARE PACKAGE CALLED "EMULASER"…IT IS SUPPOSED TO TAKE DOT MATRIX . INK JET PRINTERS AND GIVE THEM "LASERLIKE" QUALITY ON PRINTING…ITT IS ALSO SUPPOSED TO SPEED UP THE PRINTER SO IT DOESNT TAKE FOREVER AND A DAY TO GET ANYTHING BACK. IF SOMEONE COULD GIVE ME A DIRECTION ON WHERE TO GO TO GET AN UNBIASED OPINION OF WHAT THEY THINK OF THIS I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS PRODUCED BY A COMPANY CALLED VERTISOFT SYSTEMS. DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS REALLY WILL PRODUCE THIS KIND OF QUALITY FROM A SOFTWARE PROGRAM…..HELP THANKS.

The pins on a dot matrix printer are large compared to the dots printed by a laser printer. Also, the physical movement of the paper isn't nearly as precise as the beam of a laser. With this reasoning, I can't see how a typical dot-matrix printer could achieve laser printer quality. Does Vertisoft have a money back guarantee? If so, you have nothing to lose if you try it and don't like it (except for the return postage).
