Plummiegirl,
I've been using rootsmagic for years and you can adapt and fiddle with the tree print format very easily.  I took copies over to Ireland last may and had several people in the archives and GRO ask me how I printed them.

I agree with F&F though, the older programs are better than the newer versions. Don't know what the developers do with them but their fiddling is annoying and no real improvement.

A "cheap" printer to print continuous sheets would be wonderful, I had a very old printer that would do it once - before I started FH and had no need for that facility  :(  even if I still had it, I doubt if there are current drivers for it.
Please acknowledge when a restorer works on your photos, it can take hours for them to work their magic

Please scan at 300dpi minimum to help save the restorers eyesight.

most new printers will work with old drivers you just have to fiddle around for a while to find the correct one.

however it is very hard to find printers that use continues paper
