Don't know about Epstart, but I've used JetStart, which is similar, but 
made for the HP ThinkJet printer. It works OK, but the installation 
program that comes with it is copy protected. I think you need version
2.5 (or whatever's current), because older versions don't work with  
Chooser. JetStart worked OK with the Mac II, also.
As far as screen savers go, the Moving Lines FKey works just fine, but
it's not automatic. Best one I've seen so far is Pyro!, which comes 
bundled with Suitcase.
