	The V1.3 printer device is indeed backwards compatible.  It can run
with 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2 printer drivers although 1.3 drivers are recommend as
they are much faster.

	The V1.3 EpsonXOld printer driver works with the Gemini_10-X printer
when the preferences density is set to 5 or 6.  See the V1.3 Enhancer manual
page 4-8 for the details.
