I am confused as to what changed your mind.  We basically pointed out that
it was not a bug with the driver.  Rather, it was a misunderstanding of the
three print qualities.  The normal mode which runs very well for me provides
all the quality needed for printing without grayscale.  Actually, I doubt one
would notice a difference with best quality.  However, on those occasions when
I am using grayscale, I find that the scattered blending mode using best 
quality provides excellent results.  I have printed 256-grays gifs with great
results.  Though I have no experience with the StyleWriter, I doubt that it
can do better or even as good.  Since I bought my DeskWriter second hand almost
two years ago, I have printed many things with never a problem.  I have used
it to print newsletters, posters, etc.

There was a problem one user was discussing with memory problems.  But, this
was fixed by using the TrueType fonts instead of the DeskWriter fonts.  Was
there another reason not get a DeskWriter?
