zip0 ASCII Printer Driver [GEOS]

ASCII Printer Driver by David Durran (Dated 10/17/1988) - If you have a printer you can't find a driver for, and none of the other compaitibility modes of the printer work with a different brand driver such as Epson or IBM, then this is you last hope.  This driver basically just spits text characters at the printer in hopes of putting your words on the page!

zip1 Blue Chip D12/10 Printer Driver [GEOS]

Blue Chip D12/10 GEOS Printer Driver v2.1 by David Durran (5/29/90) -This is an ASCII only printer driver for GEOS because the Blue Chip D12/10 is a 12 CPS daisy wheel printer.  I've seen rumor that there is actually a graphics driver somewhere that uses the . (period) printed over and over to create graphics.  If you know of where this can be found, please use the "Contact Us" link. 

P.S. - Desperately looking for the manual and/or demo disk to this printer. Thank you Thomas Shaw for sharing the demo disk and word processor quick guide.  The full printer manual can be found here.

P.S.S. - Here's a YouTube link if you want to see the printer in action.

Update - Attempted to print with this from geoWrite 2.1 and although all the characters print fine, it doesn't add spaces.  Printing straight from BASIC works ok, so it's possibly some setting I'm overlooking in GEOS.  Here's a thread about the printer over at Lemon64

d64 floppy5 Commodore 1525 80dpi Printer Driver [GEOS] HOT

Saw this printer driver mentioned on the GEOS Facebook group and I thought it might be handy for anyone with a Commodore 1525 or 801 printer that only does 60 DPI.  Apparently this driver can simulate 80 DPI on the 1525 or MPS 801.  (Only works with Device #4 or #5) - Original source was the Genie Commodore File Library.
