- I've used PowerPrint since version 1 (pre-version 1 actually), and can
- say that version 2.0 is a major enhancement. It now includes a print
- spooler and support for even more printers. I use an HP LJIIP, and
- I've heard some people say thet their specific driver had some
- problems, but I've always heard GDT to be very good about responding
- to any problems.
-
- I am a very happy PowerPrint user (looking forward to PowerPrint/LT --
- it's a LocalTalk to parallel converter!)
