Digital BW, The Print

Joe,

Per your postings, I see that you follow this forum so I will post an 
opinion, here; though public, I seem to be unable to reach Bowhaus via 
private e-mail. Please understand that I do not mean to pontificate negative 
comments vis-a-vis Bowhaus, but I just thought you should be aware of the 
feelings of someone who was a potential Bowhaus customer.

Following your post regarding the pre-release pricing for the first version 
of IJC/OPM, I attempted to get in touch with your company for days before we 
all became aware of your DSL issues. I, as well as others on this forum, had 
quite a few questions I/we wanted answered before making a purchase 
decision. I guess all my e-mails were lost because, to date, I've heard 
nothing! Antonis was very gracious with his knowledge, but I can not justify 
the purchase of IJC/OPM based solely on one person's opinion; albeit a very 
knowledgeable opinion.

I, for one, think that your very short timeframe for taking advantage of the 
pre-release offer is ridiculous; especially given the fact that no one could 
communicate with the company for several days! And, once you announced that 
Bowhaus was "back on the air" no mention that today's deadline might be / 
would be extended. Well, sir, you have lost me as a customer! You have 
probably lost a few other potential customers on this forum, too. I've been 
in the computer industry since its infancy, and seen the rise of the desktop 
and all that it has to offer. But, I remain mystified how most software 
companies even stay in business--yes, even the giant of 'em all: Microsoft! 
<Rant over...strolling across the room to cuddle up to my Mac>

Hello Bill,

Version 1.0.0 of OPM only supports a USB connection either direct or via a
USB hub.

I do know that on the larger printers( e.g. 9600) you can have multiple
connections to your printer, If you set the connection type to \ufffdauto\ufffd the
printer will respond to what ever it receives a signal from.  I don\ufffdt know
if you can also add a USB cable to your 2200 and have it auto sense.
