- EPSJET is a software Epson MX-80 emulator for the HP DeskJet! By David
- L. Bailey (dated 1989), this GEM of a program is a must-have for all
- DeskJet owners. Not all Epson features are implemented, and graphics
- output will be no better in resolution than it would be on an Epson
- MX-80. Programs using GDOS output and the FX80.SYS driver should work
- with EpsJet to print MX-80-resolution graphics. Text output programs
- that request the MX-80 to underscore, print compressed or expanded
- characters, print italics, bold, subscripts or superscripts, should work
- with EpsJet. Certain other MX-80 functions (for example, tab settings)
- are not supported. The author lists all sorts of ways this program
- doesn't _exactly_ emulate the MX-80, but what it does sounds good enough
- for me! I am not sure if it works with anything but the DeskJet
- "Classic" (given the date only that version of the DeskJet was available
- then), but it certainly is worth the try!
