     I am afraid that you are probably out of luck.  Last year I contacted
Microsoft who said that they had no such driver or plans to generate one.  I
contacted Star, who said that the Star Gemini 10 printer emulated a Star Delta,
and to use that driver.  However, this does not work either.  Annoying, as the
Gemini is a workhorse printer and will probably run forever.
