Digital BW, The Print

Bee,

That's what I used to say aswell... until I realised along with others here
that the 1280 Printer driver prints differently from the 1290 driver. Of
course, that doesn't mean the printer is different, but there was some
'other stuff' going on that suggested the firmware inside may be more
different than we expected.
