I have a little option in a not-yet-released Davex command ("net") that does what you want: all it does it make a PMSetPrinter call to clear the "ImageWriter emulator" bit that tells RPM (Remote Print Manager) to send, at the beginning of each print job, the command to activate the IWEM. Do you have documentation for the AppleTalk commands? The book you want is available from APDA, & it's called "AppleShare Programmer's Guide to the Apple IIgs" (even though it includes ProDOS 8 information too). -- --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems AppleLink--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
