Andrew, save yourself the $40 and do NOT buy the TurboJet GDOS printer
driver from Neocept!! Buy the GDOS printer driver set from Migraph instead!!

I know because I was foolish enough to buy the TurboJet drivers without asking
first, and was it ever a mistake. First, the GDOS driver for my Panasonic KXP4450
Laser Partner printer does not allow complete grpahics on a page. I bought the
shareware program IMG CAT from the author on GEnie and when I wne to print out
a catalog of IMG pics d/led from GEnie it would only print 6 pics from page,
the rest of the page was blank. I asked on GEnie about it and was told that the
TurboJet GDOS driver was at fault. I went out and bought the Migraph GDOS
printer drivers and everything now prints fine. I have been told that there
are other programs which don't work well with the Neocept TurboJet GDOS drivers.

And to boot it all, the Migraph drivers were cheaper than the Neocept TurboJet!!

So, try to order the Migraph GDOS drivers and you will be happy!!









 Standard disclaimers apply; i speak for myself.
