Which printer setup works best with Spectre GCR?   I have a Mac
Imagewriter II (Serial) and several normal Epson-type (parallel)
printers.  If I use the Imagewriter, I have to use the serial port
on the "Mac" and therefore I can't use a modem without disconnecting
the printer.   If I use the Epson printer, which drivers work the
best?   Do they work well with the following programs?

	1) Microsoft Word (3.01 and 4.x).

	2) Mac Draw

	3) Mac Project

	4) Page Maker

I've had difficulty using the Imagewriter II with Magic Sac (buffer
overflows, lost chars, etc.).  Will these problems go away with Spectre
GCR?

Reply by e-mail and I'll summarize.  Thanks.
