OT - switching from oki590 color to epsonc84

[Daniel Bauer]

Thanks I'll look into that as an option. Of course as usual everything the
customer needs everything done yesterday. :-)

| Dan,
| I'm going to offer a suggestion that is exactly NOT what you want to hear.
| I have nothing to offer re the OKI stuff, sorry.  But, if it comes down to
| replacing the hardware.... do yourself a favor... get a network ready
| HP-2300 Business Inkjet.  It will solve all your problems. Be much faster
| than the oki... no need for a new serial card.  It has a huge duty cycle,
| and it can print PCL-5 stuff from filePro so your forms will look great...
| *and* have color if you want it.
| 
| I know it isn't the response you wanted... but it's the best advice I can
| give.
|
