Hmmm, Santa was also good to me and I am using the HP970 printer also along
with TurboPrint7, PgS4.2 and other programs. Although the HP970 probably
prints with higher definition than I/we are able to access, it does seem to
work for the most part. There are occasions with PgS that it will find itself
not communicating with the computer but a reboot works to reset. It is the
latest edition of thee deskjet from HP but for the most part, works quite
well. With TurboPrint you need to use the 895 driver settings. I have had
problems with the StudioII drivers and have been unsuccessful there.
