Printing in color with WinUAE on color laser

source · 09 April 2013, 19:04

I have just picked up a color laser printer Hp Laserjet pro 200 MPF scanner, fax printer. I can get it to print from WinUAE in black and white, but can't seem to get it to print in color. Is there a color laser printer driver in Turboprint that I should be using. Right now it is set for HP laserjet 6.
Thanking you in advance.

None I have found. Ghostscript can print in color, but I use FinalWriter and its Postscript driver or PageStream 4 with its postscript driver. The Amiga PS driver should work in color, but not on my 4 printers.

I can get it to print in color with an hp inkjet but can't seem to get it to print in color with the laser.

Different beasts -- print engines. I use FW to print graphics in color as it is quick.

Yes, FinalWriter = FW, like PageStream is PgS (PS is PostScript and GS is GhostScript).
