What is the best available printer driver for the HP 550C. Not the Pagestram version, but one for general use. Thanks. Dan Cole

Dan, Creative Focus is just about to release a commercial driver for the DJ550C. Their drivers are VERY good and are worth the money…

Thanks. How can I get in touch with these folks? Any idea? Dan Cole

Dan, An Amiga owner over on HPPeripheral Forum said that he found one on Genie and would upload it here. That was supposed to be last week. I'm still waiting on it. Pretty soon, I'll look him up, but I wanted to give the sysops here a chance to post it. So far, my 500C driver has done pretty well. Karl

Karl, A 550C driver was uploaded here (on 3 separate occassions). It is a commercial driver, not public domain or shareware. For a 550C driver, contact your local dealer to order it for you or contact Commodore directly for information on this driver.

Steve, I wondered if that's what happened. I warned the guy in HPPeriph to check filesizes against the commercial one, but he didn't know what it was. Yes, I hear that CBM is in beta on the driver. I hope they get it done soon. It's quite galling to be stuck waiting for this while Windows Weenies are dumping out nice prints at work. Gak. Karl
