Does anybody out there in WindowLand know where I can get a
Windows 3 printer driver for an Okidata Okimate 20 color
printer? Okidata says to call Microsoft and of course Microsoft
says to call Okidata.  I tried using Atech Publishers
Powerpak on a friends machine, but it only supports B&W
on the Okimate. 

Is there any way to write a printer driver or modify one
for Windows without buying $1000 worth of sofware and
taking 6 months to learn to write it? I have glanced through
a few Windows programming books at the local B. Dalton and there
is no mention of printer drivers in any of them!

Thanks for any help you can provide!
