On the same subject, I still need the driver for the printer. Im kinda guessin that the driver i require is not availible. Does anyone know if there is a driver for another HP printer that will work on the 710 on the amiga? I have tried emailing HP direct, they aim to reply in 1 hour, after waiting 2 weeks i give up.

Any help appriciated.

Basically, the 710C will NEVER work on Amiga, Mac, Unix, Linux or any other OS other than Windows....



Actually..

It works on Mandrake Linux :-)

Pity bout miggy tho

Thanks Guys.
