Ralf provided a technically correct answer.
I don't know that the DOS software I use ever supported any inkjet printers. I
was
still exclusively using Epson compatible dot matrix when the DOS software I
still
use was discontinued without upgrade path. All my spreadsheet macros assume
Epson.
I bought an inkjet once. The ink disappeared before I could print 40 pages from
the automatic self head cleaning that failed to clean enough to have all 4
colors
working. They are a terrible choice for anyone like me who rarely prints
anything.
