Question 1:  Do 1.2 drivers run under 1.3 of AmigaDOS.  I know that new drivers
were released with 1.3 but does that mean all 1.2 drivers are no good under
1.3?  

Question 2: If indeed 1.3 cannot handle the old drivers does anyone know where
there is a 1.3 driver for the Star Micronics Gemini 10X printer.  I currently
have a 10X which I am using until I get the $$ for a new printer so I will 
need to have a printer driver when I update to 1.3.   

	I know most everyone updated long ago, I am just slow because I saw no
real need to update to 1.3.  I just got a hard disk and do not want to use
the old file system on it when FFS is available under 1.3.  I want to move
my system to 1.3 when I install the hard drive but I still need to be able
to print or else WordPerfect becomes semi-useless and it is my most used
program.


	Thanks,

	Tim Harris  (tim@mcrware)
