Thanks.
TurboPrint has a free version for non-commercial use, which I downloaded
and installed. Actually it installed itself, even identified and added a
couple of missing dependencies. It seems to work fine. Unfortunately,
the "free" edition prints a big and colorful TurboPrint logo at the top
of the page, rendering it useless except as a test. Guess I'll have to
start saving for the paid version. At least I know there is a driver.
Thanks again.
By the way, I couldn't help wondering. Are you any relation to Thomas à
Kempis*?
