Spake Harry,

A big thanks for the rassurance re USB. But your reply re: the Canon
printer driver is incorrect. I know there is NO win31 driver for the Canon
i450-950 or pixma successor. But there ARE win31 drivers for earlier Canon
models which will work. We just don't know yet which ones, or where to
find them in a form from which they can be installed in Win/OS/2.
