Hi everyone-

I have a DeskWriter (serial only) running on version 2.1 of the HP driver.  I
also installed 32-Bit QuickDraw from Apple's System 6.0.5 disks.  When I try
to print, I get about 1.5 inches down the page and a "Datacomm buffer overrun -
no DTR handshaking" error.  I took 32-Bit QuickDraw out and the printer works
fine now.  Does anyone know where the problem is (in 32-Bit QD or in the DW
driver)?  Does 32-Bit QD in System 6.0.7 differ from the one in 6.0.5?  Is the
problem in the HP driver?

I'm running an SE/30, SuperLaserSpool 2.02, and other stuff which never gave me
problems before.

Please send e-mail, or post if you feel necessary.  Thanks in advance.
