Thanks for previous tips, but no luck yet.
Cannot get past the Printer Models page in the Wizard.
If you dont hilite something in both windows it wont proceed.
The printer I have is a Tandy DMP 132.
There are mucho Epson models listed thot maybe the 9 pin or 24 pin compatable might work but no luck there.
Using W/98 SE Wizard.

Hey,

Sorry to hear that. Go to the site listed below and click on Printers in the middle of the page. You will get a list of supported printers and their drivers that you can download. I didn't check, but hopefully your printer is among those listed. You will have to page down to find the Tandy listings.

Good luck.

Edit: Just went there and found your printer, but it was only a user manual type thing. However, I did catch that it will emulate an IBM Graphics printer. I would try to find something like that in the printer wizard listings.

Some info on it Here (http://support.tandy.com/support_accessories/doc4/4525.htm)

Another one Here ( http://support.tandy.com/support_accessories/doc4/4333.htm)

Might be worth a look Here (http://www.oldskool.org/~tvdog/utilities.html)

Metropoli (http://www.mpoli.fi/files/hardware/PRINT/WP/WP50DOS/) has a driver for it listed, the site is not in English, use at your own risk.

That's about all I can find without an intensive search...

IBM did the trick.
