RE: Help! Best Host Print Transform for Dell W5300 Printer

["Mike" <mshaw2456@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kirk,

Yup, kid tested and dad approved!  Even though the printer says Dell on the
front, I wonder if it is based on a Lexmark print engine????  <VBG>

Thanks for the quick response.

Regards,

Mike Shaw

Looks like it's an Lexmark.... Use *LEXOPTRA


Now how did I find that...

Go to WWW-912.ibm.com (yes that's a dash before the 912)
In the top right search box type "support ascii printers xxx"  xxx being 
Dell or HP or ??

You will get a bunch of hits, goto the  "Software Knowledge Base" tab 
and look for
"Support for ASCII Printers from xxx"

Use the tables you find there
