My desktop computer is a 6 yr-old Mac clone (Power Computing 
Powerbase)-- boosted by a 220 Mhz G3 adapter card. The 
Powerbase RAM is limited to a measly 160 mbytes--and I  have 
only 144 Mb installed. However my 2200 prints with OPM quite 
well (with OS 8.6). When running OPM I do have to quit all other 
apps since it alone uses about 113 Mb. But hey, it works. 
Fortunately my  Powerbook (Lombard)--faster and with much 
more RAM--is also available for printing.
