Printer-Driver for Epson Stylus Color needed
« on: December 19, 2002, 08:30:15 PM »
Does anybody have this driver? I have Turboprint 7.06, but
TP won't work well anymore with OS3.9 It patches exec.library in
a way that the setpatch won't work again after a reboot.
It gives a yellow Guru-Meditation and after a checksumerror
exec.library. Therefore I need a replacment.

For the moment I use the Epson Stylus 24bit driver, but
this driver is ment for newer printers than mine and doesn't
work pretty well.

Did you go to http://www.irseesoft.de/tp_faqs.htm and use the patch that is supposed to fix problems with OS 3.5?

If not, you can check Aminet.  I think there was a driver recently posted on there, not sure which Epson printer they support.

I've used TP 7.20 on OS 3.5 and OS 3.9 and both with an Epson Color Stylus 800 and C80 with no problems.

Which model of Epson Stylus do you have? If it's the very original Epson Stylus Colour, the model number is 720 (i.e. Epson Stylus 720), and Turboprint 7x definitely does have a printer driver for that. If your printer IS a 720 (original Stylus) and you still can't find a driver in TP7x, then you have an incomplete version of TurboPrint. At the very least, if memory serves me correctly TurboPrint does have a generic Epson ESC/P2 driver. The original Stylus uses ESC/P2 codes and such a driver will offer basic functionality (although I can't guarantee all resolutions and options will be available).

The model is just Epson Stykus Color ESC/P2

I own TP and I got the official patch for the OS3.5 probems and
it worked well under OS3.5 BUT mow under 3.9 there is a
conflict between TP (V7.06) and setpatch both patching  (?) exec.library.
