  33.       This is one of the so-called GDI- or winprinters, a printer with
  34.       a proprietary data protocol, which is not publicly documented by
  35.       the manufacturer.<br>
  36.  
  37.       Fortunately, Nicolas Boichat has reverse-engineered the protocol
  38.       using <a

  40.       described by Rildo Pragana</a>, which lead to <a

  42.       driver</a>.<br>
