Title: Drivers available
Post by: Mycroft on February 28, 2003, 02:31:19 AM
Fearing the loss of my last 5.25" drive, I spent some time a couple of months ago and took the ver 7.0c 5.25" installation disks and copied them onto CD.

From there I can copy them back out to 3.5" disks or disk images on CD for future reference.  Therefore, if anyone needs an old driver from that version, I have them.

Yes, I really did Beta Test WS 7.0  I was testing it on three different machines, one of which was running OS/2 ver 1.1 at the time.  I also used ver 2.2 on CP/M way back when.

I would be most appreciative if you have a driver for HP4 Laserjet and also for HP4 Laserjet Plus.  I am not sure if they are different or the same.  My email is kingsbury@blitz-it.net.  Thanks very much --

The most recent printer drivers for the Black and White PCL printers can be found here:

I even have versions customized for using the Euro.

The PCL extra printer databases are hosted by Mike here at this page

Rob Sawyer has developed a colour PCL printer driver.

Gud day! I would like to kindly ask for a printer driver or is it a printer description file for Wordstar 7 dos printing on a Panasonic kx-p1150 & epson fx 850.  Also we recently bought a laptop that has no parallel port so I bought a USB TO PARALLEL cable. But now I could not print from inside Wordstar 7 to my dot matrix printer. Can you help me? I've tried Tame & print to file but i did not work. Thanks very much.

I need a driver for WS6, Okidata printer. Can you help, or tell me how to identify the file on the original program disks?

I have been using Wordstar 6 for years on a machine with Windows 98 for many years. The printer is an Okidata 320 Microline turbo.

All have worked well until now. Now, when I send a file to the printer, no printing occurs and the program freezes, requiring a cold reboot. I can print from another program without any problem, so I'm suspecting something corrupted in WS itself. I have not made any recent changes to WS or Windows. Any suggestions?
