I've noticed that sometimes their database isn't perfect and doesn't always
list everything. The setup disk set is the same for all OS's and models of
the 1700 so maybe back up one and choose Dos or Windows 3.1 or something
else until it shows up. For some reason the site isn't working correctly
at the moment, I don't get any responses from it or I'd point you to the
specific link.
