@ Viking,

By the way, does somebody know how much RAM Turboprint 7.40 and a Canon s900 needs?

Processing graphics for printing takes a lot of memory regardless of what platform you're doing it on (Win versus Amiga).  I have TurboPrint v7.3x for use with my Epson Stylus Color 660 printer.  To get the best results, I have a lot of the high quality options turned on.  As an example, more than half of the RAM in my 146 MB A4000T ends up in use just by doing a print screen.  Buffering also takes up some memory, too.  When the printing is complete, the memory is freed up.

Would it work on a standard A-1200 too?

Are you talking a machine with only the 2 MB of Chip RAM??  If so, no way.  It will not work in that little memory.

@ Viking,
I would take it to 34 Meg to be safe.
