          Appeal No. 2003-0237                                                        
          Application No. 09/157,895                                                  

          and/or installing the print driver (fig. 4 and col. 5, lines 44-            
          60)” (answer, page 13).                                                     
               The examiner relies upon Millman for a disclosure of a text            
          editor, but the portion of Millman cited by the examiner does not           
          disclose that the editor used to modify the print driver is a               
          text editor.  Also, the examiner has not explained how Millman              
          would have fairly suggested a text editor to one of ordinary                
          skill in the art.  Furthermore, as discussed above regarding the            
          rejection of claims 1 and 11, the examiner relies upon Shaw for a           
          disclosure of a text based minidriver, but the examiner has not             
          pointed out where a text based minidriver is disclosed by Shaw.             
          Nor has the examiner explained how Shaw would have fairly                   
          suggested a text based minidriver to one of ordinary skill in the           
          art.  Thus, the examiner clearly has not established that the               
          applied references would have fairly suggested, to one of                   
          ordinary skill in the art, using a text editor to create or                 
          modify a text based minidriver.                                             
               Accordingly, we reverse the rejection of claims 18 and 20              
          and claims 19, 21 and 22 that depend therefrom.
