Carlo,

Did you ever find these ? They sound to me more like Xy-4 drivers, with an
incorrect designation. If they are in fact 3-series drivers, I'm thinking they
must have come out near the very end of Xy-3, whenever that was. I'm in the
process of transferring what I hope is all of my Xy-file holdings off of
floppies. This includes stuff like all of my multi-year subscription to the
"Appnote" disks, a bit of a misnomer because they encompassed both files like
newer PRN drivers as well as technical documentation. I've gotten up to 1990,
found various 3-series drivers for Epson and for HP, but not the ones you
mentioned. If they are not on the last 3 or 4 of those diskettes (can't answer
that right now, since I have the "wrong" old floppy drive installed), I
probably don't have them. Guess we should have grabbed *everything* off of the
Xy BBS and the TTG website, while they were still up, just for posterity and as
a precaution.
