A two-part question, generic and specific:

o	Has anybody seen good (read that "usable") documentation to 
enable someone to create a Printer Driver for another type of printer, 
or has anybody come up with a "generic" printer driver, where you can 
select codes, etc. appropriate to your specific printer?

o	Has anybody attempted to use a DEC LA-50 printer with the Mac, 
and if so, how (of course I mean fully functionally, not just in Draft 
mode)?

Thanks,

Jeff
