PRINTER DRIVER LEVEL = 30.688 (OMINI.DRV 
dated 7/8/99)
-----------------------------
19 NEW and 896 Printers UPDATED

The latest OMNI driver now supports 
bi-directional printing at 720x720 on my 
Epson Stylus Color.

It is much faster than the previous version, 
although, this could be due to FP11. It 
prints almost continously, without the long 
pauses seen previously.

Photo print quality is Excellent, but still 
not quite as smooth and detailed as under 
Windows (Dithering(Stucki)?  
Microweaving(not?) Bi-directional(cannot 
force uni)?)  
However, the color matching is better than 
with the windows driver!

From the Readme:
