Jack, The need to have installed printer drivers for some models is indeed related to USB, which DBT won't drive directly. But I'm not sure what "problem" you're driving at; there are certainly some glitches right now, but, as far as I'm aware, no problem that we won't work through, and none related specifically to USB. - Peter -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Maartman Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2004 11:41 AM To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Re: Install of DBT on Windows 98 SE Hold me up to ridicule, by all means, but could the problems with the global embosser dialog have to do with usb, vs serial devices. Just a thought however misguided.
