  • Re: Color version of "The Print Shop" for Commodore machines?

    and a couple of models of Star printer.

    Those wouldn't include the NL-10, would it? That's the only Star printer that VICE is able to emulate.

    One solution would be to transfer the graphics to GEOS and use its printer
    drivers, as there are several ways to convert PrintShop/PrintMaster graphics to a GEOS format.

    Such as how? I unfortunately cannot get GEOS's Convert utility to work on any of the graphics that I found on some Print Shop graphics disks.

    FWIW, there was a color-printing version of Print Shop for the Apple II. It worked with the Apple Dot Matrix Printer. IIRC, graphics were printed out in 4 colors.
    It was great to see such color print-outs at the middle school.
