I've seen ads for the HP DeskJet printer and have even wandered into
a local Computer Store and looked at one. The print quality of the demo was
fairly nice, and I liked the matte quality of the print (unlike the usually
shiny quality that laser printers print).
My question is this:
Has anyone out there in NetLand actually used one of these printers
with either Ventura or PageMaker (under MS-DOS, if it makes a
difference)? The ads don't promise total compatability with
anything - either they say "compatable with most ... applications"
or something similar. I can't even find out if the Epson FX-80
emulator cartridge is 100% (or even less) Epson FX-80 compatable.
If so, how does it do on text mixed with graphics or scanned &
cropped half-tones?
If not, thanks anyway.
