A. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
=================================================================
Printer support via PrintBoy is built into Dana, so no 
installation is necessary with many popular printers including 
many by Canon, Epson, Lexmark and Hewlett-Packard.  Support for 
PostScript printers is installed on the first HotSync.

Please see "Printing from Additional Applications", below, to
enable printing from these applications.

B. PRINTERS SUPPORTED
=================================================================
Support for the following printers is automatically installed:
 * HP LaserJet
 * HP DeskJet
 * Canon (non-BubbleJet only)
 * Epson
 * Lexmark
 * PostScript printers (installed to RAM)

There is also a Generic printer driver that is automatically 
installed that may work with your printer.


C. SUPPORT FOR ADDITIONAL PRINTERS
=================================================================
Additional printer drivers are also included in the 
DanaExtras\PrintBoy Files\Printer Drivers directory.
If your printer is one listed below, you will need to install
an additional file(s).

 * Canon BubbleJet
 * Epson C60, C62, C80, C82, Stylus Photo 820, Stylus Photo 960
 * HP (non LaserJet and Deskjet)
 * Citizen
 * Seiko
 * Ricoh
 * Zebra
 * Oneil
 * Extech

There is a printer driver for each manufacturer that must be
installed.  If a printer has its own folder under the Printer
Drivers folder, you will also need to install all of the files
immediately under that folder for your printer to work (excluding
the "Extra Font Sizes" folder.)  For maximum font support, 
substitute the "pbf_" files under Extra Font Sizes instead of the
"pbf_" files that end in "_min".

For example, under the Epson C60 folder there is a 
BPMEpsonC60.prc driver that must be installed.  Under that
same folder you will find pbf_cn_120_min.pdb, pbf_cn_360_min.pdb,
pbf_tnr_120_min.pdb and pbf_tnr_360_min.pdb.  Install these files
to give normal font support.  If you want extended font support,
install the files under "Extra Font Sizes" instead:
pbf_cn_120.pdb, pbf_cn_360.pdb, pbf_tnr_120.pdb and 
pbf_tnr_360.pdb.


Please refer to "Installing Applications" in the Getting Started 
Guide for instructions installing these files.
