When you create your working disk I think it asks what kind of printer you have and a few other things like that and saves this to your working copy program disk. If you or anyone wants a new, shrinkwrapped (or mostly in-tact shrinkwrap) copy of SuperScript II, I make offer plus shipping. I will ship in a flat-rate US to worldwide box, you can look up the price for shipping usps.com I have two left of my original box and then they're gone. The software comes with 3-ring binder documentation, disk. I believe 8050 format. I also have about 6 or so SuperBase II copies. I believe one can read SuperScript programs using SuperBase https://www.vintagecomputer.net/contact.cfm BillReceived on 2018-09-02 21:03:15
