Is anyone out there using Thinktank with a daisywheel printer?  The
only way I've been able to print outlines is by pasting into 
MSWord and using the Brother driver from there, but that loses the 
formatting and numbering.  Is there a system form of the Brother
driver available(free or commercial)?  Even a generic daisywheel driver
with user specified settings would be fine.  The only commercial 
application I've seen advertised that MIGHT have one is PRINTWORKS
(Softstyle).  One of the ads for it mentioned "includes 15 drivers for a 
variety of popular printers", but a useless "review" (in the Macintosh
Buyer's Guide{a useless magazine if ever there was}) only talks about
the color printing and Imagewriter enhancements.  Besides, $50 seems
like way too much for a printer driver.

Please Email replies.
