I discovered, on my book shelf - long forgotten, a 1988 software catalog
that included some printer drivers.

Softstyle is a company we've heard of before, and many use their EpStart
epson drivers, but I did not know the other drivers that they make.

	PlotStart w/ Cable $93.00 Discount
		HP Colorpro, the 7475a and 7550A
	
	BlueStart $33.00 Discount
		IBM's Proprinter, Quietwriter, Wheelwriter or Color Ink Jet
