To get drivers for the LX-800 you need to call WordPerfect for the Epson
printers diskette.  They are charging about $10 for the disk.  The 800
number is in the WP manual and they ask for your WP serial number.  For
some reason, WordPerfect decided that the LX-80 was not a popular enough
printer to include with the standard releases.

Alternatively, you can call the WP BBS with your WP number (call the 800
line for the number and access methods) and download the appropriate
drivers.  Since access is rather cryptic, you need to have them tell you
the driver name.  You also need a copy of PKZIP which can be downloaded
from the BBS, but the first time access is limited so you may not be 
able to download both the driver and PKZIP the same day.
