There has been some traffic in this group asking about
printer drivers for the GEMINI-10X for use with Atariwriter+.

The following is the one that seems to work fine for me. I am
posting it since the built in EPSON driver did not work for 
me either:

initialize		-
LF/CR			155
underline off		27,45,0
underline on		27,45,1
backspace		-
elongate off		27,87,0
elongate on		27,87,1
bold off		27,72
bold on			27,71
1/2 up			-
1/2 down		27,65,6,10,27,65,12
1/2 down/CR		27,65,6,155,27,65,12
CR -no LF		27,74,1,155,27,74,24
font #1			27,84,27,66,1
font #2			27,84,27,66,3
font #3			27,84,27,66,2
font #4			27,83,0
font #5			27,83,1
font #6			27,84,27,66,2
font #7			27,52
font #8			27,53
font #9			27,84


Notes-----	155 seems to be needed as the LF/CR code or double
		column printing will crash.

		G1=10 cpi
		G2=17 cpi
		G3=G6=12 cpi
		G4= start superscripts
		G6= start subscripts
		G7= start italics
		G8= end italics
		G9= end super/subscripts

Hope this helps for the AW+ and Gemini owners.
