- HELP!!!
-
-
- From Broadway 53963
-
-
- This is being written in an attempt
-
- to get information on how to operate
-
- my equipment. I live in an area where
-
- it is difficult to find someone to
-
- visit with about my hardware and the
-
- dealer has locked his door.
-
- I have purchased a Commodore 64,
-
- a 1541 disk drive, a 1702 monitor,
-
- a Panasonic KX-P1090 printer, and a
-
- Turboprint/GT interface
-
- I use Paperclip with Spell Pack for
-
- my word processor. I am having
-
- difficulty getting the printer to
-
- print. When I write to Commodore or
-
- Panasonic or Telesys (Turboprint/Gt),
-
- they all pass the buck to the other
-
- people. Where can I talk to someone
-
- who can help me?
-
- I have not been in computing very
-
- long and am becoming discouraged by
-
- people who only want to sell. HELP!

-
- Would anyone along the network be
-
- interested in adding items to the
-
- PRINT SHOP Graphics Library. The
-
- nifty Broderbund Software itself
-
- is a dream to work with. The results
-
- are formidable. Using the bit map
-
- graphic editor provided, I have
-
- designed several graphics. Are these
-
- transferable to others...or am I
-
- barking up the wrong tree? If so, I
-
- would appreciate others who own the
-
- PRINT SHOP to send me their
-
- originally designed graphics and I
-
- will send them mine.
-
- I am interested in receiving as much
-
- information as possible about such
-
- large database operations as COMPU-
-
- SERVE, the SOURCE and any other. I am
-
- ready to buy a modem, so I will need
-
- good insider tips on which to
-
- purchase. Will it matter if it is
-
- asynch or bisynch...will I need a
-
- standard 'ma bell' phone to hook up
-
- to...what kind of money are we
-
- talking about for the modem and a
-
- fairly regular chat along the
-
- network?
-
- Thank you.

- From Murat 2285 HJ Netherlands
-
- In response to Shepard 91331
-
- I don't know about the "BANK STREET
-
- WRITER", but as far as "PRINT SHOP"
-
- is concerned, I was in the same
-
- position as you are. My blooming
-
- dealer, where I bought the machine,
-
- informed me that the MPS-802 cannot
-
- operate in hi-res mode. Since then I
-
- got a Star Gemini SG-10 (fitted
-
- locally, i.e. in Holland). Now the
-
- "PRINT SHOP" works like a dream
-
- except for some weak vertical lines
-
- generated by "PRINT SHOP".
-
-
- In response to Marak 71106
-
- The best wordprocessor I know of is
-
- "VIZAWRITE", which is fully
-
- compatible with the integrated
-
- spreadsheet/data base/graphics
-
- program "VIZASTAR." Together these
-
- two programs form a powerful
-
- combination in solving current
-
- practical problems. I have little
-
- experience with printers (except for
-
- problems), but if I were you, I would
-
- go with the Star Gemini SG-10c.
