Richard, << printer support HP1200 >> on page 90 of the Installation Guide it describes the supported hard copy devices. Most individuals will output their images and print them from a program in Windows. Most printer manufactures have writen drivers that will interface with their printers in windows. There are shareware programs in the graphics forum and windows has your drivers… jonas[adesk]

You can print from Windows, but you will need to beef up the standard RAM if you want to print full page, otherwise, I am pushing Image Alchemy, which will convert files to HP RTL which you can dump straight to the printer and get big images with no extra memory. Alchemy still isn't very friendly and it takes a while to get the color right, but it sure beats all to not have to go to Windows printing every time.

The 1200C ships with a very nice Windows driver which you can use for outputting hardcopy from 3DS. You just need a windows package that can accept .TGA or .TIF or .JPG (most all) and use that. Dave Mennenoh
