I have a Lexmark 5700 and it works brilliantly under Xy4DOS
using the HPDJ500.PRN driver. I should say also that I use OS/2
and have the appropriate Lexmark driver installed. I believe
that the Xy4DOS driver bypasses the OS/2 spooler because I get
much faster results when I type "ty" in Xy4 than when I print
from an OS/2 app. I haven't tested the printer with XyWin.
Wasn't that the Xy version in question?

Cheers,
John Gordon
