Message-ID: <9326.26eb9a99@rsmas.miami.edu> Date: 10 Sep 90 17:52:25 GMT Lines: 18 Question: Why did my printer go crazy after a RAM upgrade? When I rebooted after upgrading my Mac Plus from 2.5 to 4 meg, my imagewriter II printer went wild. During the boot up process, it would spit out many pages, each with one or two lines of garbage printed. This would happen whether it was a cold start (ie. turning the power on) or a warm start using "restart" under the special menu. I removed super laser spool from my system folder and the problem still occurred. I then re-installed the system (6.0.3) and the printer resources and the problem went away. So, either something was funky in the system or my printer resource suddenly went bad. Why???? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jerry L.
