I am helping a non-profit group with some donated equipment.
They have a TRS-80 Model 2000 computer, dual floppies, 
CM-1 color monitor, and a CGP-220 color printer.

How PC compatible is this computer. It runs MS-DOS 2.11, but
locks-up when with CGA programs.  The BASIC demos run okay
in color, but the Deskmate V1.01 runs only in gray and some
lines of characters in the menus are not visible.

1. Is there a newer version of Deskmate that would work better ?
2. Does anyone have any software for this machine, cheap ?
3. Is the CGP-220 compatible with any standard ? (Canon Inkjet ?)

Any help would be welcomed. The machine is in Asbury Park, NJ.
