                          1. GENERAL INFO

   Print!  -  is  a program  that allows you to print text files under
Windows  95/98  in  the  printer's  text  mode. Usually, when printing
text files under Windows, printer operate in graphics mode. For matrix
printers text mode printing is much faster than graphics.
   STOP  LOOSING  YOUR  TIME!  If your printer is MATRIX and your text
doesn't contain complex formatting, print it with Print!.
   This  program  works  with  ink printers too, and may be with laser
ones  (I  didn't  tryed).  Such  printers work pretty fast in graphics
mode. But you can try this program anyway. Probably you'll like it :-)
