Let's  start right off with the  questions/advertisements/answers
that  came  in by our mail since the launch of ST NEWS  Volume  2
Issue 2...

I  am looking for a monochrome monitor.  I am not willing to  pay
more than 350 Dutch guilders!

I have a problem:  A have a 1040 STF computer with a Panasonic KX
printer.  When  I connect both devices by means of  a  Centronics
cable,  all I get is some form feeds - but no text. My questions:
How must a Centronics cable be built up?  And is there perhaps  a
software printer driver to work with the Panasonic printer?

Is there someone who can adapt "Signum!" for me, so that it works
correctly with a Star Gemini 10X printer?  I am quite  desperate!
In exchange, I can help you to adapt "Fleet Street" for the 10X.

Can someone help me?  I have a General Electric TXP-1000 printer,
but  I  cannot seem to make a hardcopy that doesn't look  like  a
'tiger-print'. Is there a program that does the job properly?

This  problem was originally published in ST NEWS Volume 2  Issue
2,  and we now have an answer. It cannot be simply explained, but
we have just added two programs on this ST NEWS disk that  should
do the job.  One of them is an accesory,  that needs to be copied
out of the PROGRAMS folder!

I am looking for original software. Prices to be negotiated.
