Trailing-edge compute farm seeks gainful employment

Many printer makers still have WIn3.1 drivers, and, by now, ones that work,
on their web sites. My Win3.1x drivers for the OKI OL1200 printer, for
example, work OK under '98. I did install the later drivers for WIn9x. I
don't see a significant advantage, however.

You will also need the Win3.1x installation diskettes if there's no printer
already installed.
