Introduction Since the release of ROM version 1.01(145) a number of enhancements have been made to the printer drivers for use with the Series 5. These enhanced drivers have now been made available to Psion Computers, who in turn are releasing them free of charge to Series 5 customers. Description A brief description of the enhancements made to each driver is detailed below; Canon driver: Canon Bubblejet (BJ Mode) A new Canon bubblejet (BJ Mode) printer driver has been added, with 2 typefaces supported - Prestige and Courier. NB It does not support italic text or printing in Landscape mode. Epson driver: Epson LQ-860, Citizen PN60 and Canon Bubblejet (LQ Mode) A new Canon bubblejet (LQ Mode) printer driver has been added which is for use with Canon Bubblejet printers that have been set in Epson LQ mode. Strike through text is now supported. Bold text printing improved. Page positioning improved. Print speed improved. Printing large blank areas no longer causes the printer to hang. Bug fixed where text completely ignored if some text was scheduled to be printed off page borders. Last page of document now ejected from printer. Changing font no longer wipes previous formatting. New Courier font sizes added. General driver: Page positioning improved. Pcl5: HP LaserJet and DeskJet drive White text on a black background now prints correctly. New Courier and Letter Gothic font sizes added. Print speed improved. Laser jet drivers renamed. All drivers: Certain printers don't support printing in Landscape mode. An error is now raised if printing is attempted in Landscape for these printers.

Using MacConnect or PsiWin 2.1 and above double-click on the .sis to install the new drivers The .sis file will install the drivers to any drive in \system\printers\ Updated Printer Drivers 1.00 will appear in the add/remove programs in the control panel.
