thank you for your reply! yes my pd driver was stylus.lha but i guess it is not 1.3 compatible. what is "sth."? the only driver that can run my 800+ is epsonQ but it's limping badly, faded and with bad margins. i have one of the 1st a-2000s (made in Germany!) and i cannot upgrade the motherB. Cheers.

'Sth.' means something (we use it at school, school english is really a joke!) Oh You have an A2000-A? Old relict 🙂 Like my A500! But the 2.04 ROM should work in it, at least I believe. Studio II should work under 1.3, the Requirements chapter says nothing that it is not compatible to 1.3 only that "it works with Version 2 and 3 of the OS". cya Jochen Antesberger from Neuburg a.d.

Sorry, Studio V2 requires at least Workbench 2.04 (it's said in the manual and on the box side bar). The drivers in Studio V2 are still WB 1.3 compatible but I don't make any promises nor can you install or edit the preferences of the driver. So, I think buying Studio is not recommended to WB 1.3 users. Regarding the Amiga 2000-A – can't you use zkick or similar stuff to get KS 2.04? I had a A2000-A myself long time ago… but I don't see any serious reasons why you can't upgrade the machine with a bit knowledge… why not asking here on CIS? — Wolf Faust, Am Dorfgarten 10, 60435 Frankfurt, Germany —
