I just purchased 3D-Studio and although I love the package was mildly disappointed that it did not contain drivers for either my video card or hardcopy drivers for my printer. My video card is relatively new, but a good performer: Hercules Stingray PCI My printer is (in my opinion) the best color output you can buy for under 1k (if you don't mind a slow printer): Epson Color Stylus Are either of these two drivers available? If not could I be notified of any updates? Thanks in advance for your reply….

<<My video card is relatively new, but a good performer: Hercules Stingray PCI>> What chipset is this card based on? Is that in the Vibrant list? <<My printer is (in my opinion) the best color output you can buy for under 1k (if you don't mind a slow printer): Epson Color Stylus>> RHPADI drivers (ADI drivers for printers) might have been written and provided by the company that makes the printer. Autodesk does not normally write ADI drivers. If the manufacturer has not written one, most likely it is not available. There are two ways most people print images. First, save to a .TGA file, and then load the TGA file into a paint program, windows program, or something else and print from there. Or there is a software package called RenderPrint from Insight technologies that allows you to print from 3DS to a number of printers. They can be reached at 800-825-4115. -Brian
