Hi Frank, it works pefectly with your Epson Stylus.  Do a DejaNews
search (http://www.dejanews.com/) for Epson Stylus on csa2 to read
all about the tests that were done.  You use the Epson LQ drivers
from Harmonie instead of the DeskJet ones and you get 360 dpi,
but only in black and white and gray scale.

I use the same driver with my Canon BubbleJet.  In fact, the text
seems sharper at the 360 dpi x 360 dpi than at the DeskJet' wierd
600 dpi x 300 dpi.  Must be the square pixels.
