- The other driver set is TurboPrint 4.1 from IrseeSoft (Germany).
- I use this driver with my HP deskjet 850C which is nearly the same as the HP
- 660C (as far as resolutions go).
- This program has drivers for any printer and takes full advantage of all the
- printers features.
- I think the results are better than the Studio II printouts, because this
- program doesn't have drivers for the latest HP printers (660C,850C,1600C).
- So the 600x600 dpi b/w or the 300 x 300 dpi RET color of the 850C isn't
- supported.
-
- But on the other hand Studio II has some more features, but these are only
- for professionals because they are really complecated. With TurboPrint you
- can change anything you need and there are a lot of config files included for
- every printer.
-
- At the AMIGA '95 fair in Cologne the company is always asked for a Windows
- version of this program, because there's nothing similar in printout quality
- on the PeeCee!
