Elso,
I am running my dos program on windows 98se right now but it did work
on a dos only computer too.

Hi Derek,
Thanks for the reply.
I don't understand the last sentence of your post stating that all
DOS programs are sending the printjob through Windows.
Boardmaker does not work under Windows; Windows should not even be
detected. Boardmaker is a pure DOS program and works on a PC without
Windows on it. The printerdriver is contained in the program and has
HP PCL3 language.
But if your old program can print to a HP970 I am confident it will
work with the HP960 DeskJet too.
