FileMaker Pro 2.0 for Windows Cannot print to ImageWriter II, II LQ

Although it is possible to connect to an Apple ImageWriter II or II LQ through Farallon PhoneNET PC, it is not possible to print from FileMaker or any other graphics-based application in Windows to the ImageWriter II or IILQ.

This information was provided by Claris Corporation on 16 March 1998, and incorporated into Apple Computer's Tech Info Library.

Farallon Computing's PhoneNET PC network software allows you to connect to printers with either Postscript or Epson emulation. However, the Epson emulation mode only allows text printing. FileMaker Pro 2.x for Windows and ClarisWorks for Windows require the ability to print graphics, and so will not print to an ImageWriter II.
