Good morning


Bear, you can use back compatibility to install the epson printer using the old drivers. Or you can just recycle it and get a new printer

"Back compatibility" has never - ever - worked for me. Not with hardware, not with
software (eg: games).

Already have a new printer... 3 years ago.

Nope... still skulking about.

Good morning snails.
Happy Labor Day.

P.S. I warned you about feeding bears....they are rather predictable. Speaking of:

Now that I'm all caught up (here and 2 other threads)...

GOOD "LAST HOLIDAY OF SUMMER 2015" to all.

Just another day here... hubs at work... me left alone.

Have stuff to drop off at Best buy for recycling. Poor poor HP scanner. Requires
SCSI interface (OK, can do that) but no drivers written for anything past Win95.
And emulation mode NEVER works... so... buh-bye. And poor Epson photo printer.
No Win7 drivers written THAT WORK. And Dad's old microwave.

What's he doing at work on Labor Day? Hmmmm? Is he a cop? A medical personnel? Something like that?

Good for you for recycling, Bear.

I've gotten back compatibility to work with most stuff-- crucial programs that costs several hundred $ to upgrade. Granted, with the potential upgrade cost, i had a bit of motivation to spend teh several hours it took to make it work. if you already have a working printer then it's not worth bothering with.

24/7/365.25 call center. Always open. It's not a holiday in Asia or Europe or
Antarctica.

I have one "game" in particuar that I'd love to have work again.
Laurie Anderson's "Puppet Motel". Not really a game, as such.
More of a multimedia experience. It was released during Win95
days. Has not worked on last two PCs. I have read it WILL
work on new Macs. But I'm not a fan of Apple.

I thought those were all in India. (joke)

The company uses "all-US employees" as a drawing card. No zils and sitars "hold muzak".

For those unfamiliar with the word "zils":

Good morning CES & Atty

FYI ...

If you're clueless, like me (highly doubtful ) and decide to mess with your Media...

And you discover it's available to "everyone" and close it to only "friends" or "followers", everyone you ever "Friend-ed" will receive a notice that you have "shared" your album with them
