New Acorn Computers Printers application


Double-click on the !NPrinters icon to open a directory display which contains the new Acorn Printer Manager application and a ReadMe file. This can be set up as normal according to the information in the RISC OS 3 User Guide. In order to get the best out of the new Printer Manager, you will need to install version 1.57 of ColourTrans in your System folder using the SysMerge program and the System folder supplied on this disc. Next month's disc will contain new printer definition files which can be used with the Printer Manager supplied here, though those originally supplied with RISC OS 3.1 will work as well.

The Printer Manager is supplied as part of RISC OS 3.1 Upgrade disc 1. The Printer Manager software should only be re-distributed with the files as described in the ReadMe text, including the Printer Definition Files on next month's disc and the System, Scrap and SysMerge applications on this disc. Existing definition files can be used with this version of the Printer Manager. The full upgrade kit can be obtained from dealers, bulletin boards and some PD sources. A small handling charge may be levied by these suppliers.
