If the question referred to the software end of things, the "print screen"
desktop function (ALT-HELP, isn't it?) assumes an Epson-compatible. Does
anyone know if there's a "sanctioned" way to make the ST assume otherwise?
Did the foolish Atari printer-control accessory (which didn't stay on my
boot-disk long) allow this? I seem to recall it had options for something
along those lines...
(I have an Epson-compatible; I'm just curious...)
