I have not used backgound printing ever (I don't have >a laserwriter) so what am I doing wrong? System 6.05, 4Meg SE, Multifinder. >Backgrounder is in my system folder. I couldn't get MultiSpool to work either. I think that one of the things that MUST be done is to click the "RESUME" button (select MultiSpool under the "Apple" menu to get the dialog box). However, when I do this I drop into MacsBug with an Address Error at FlushEvents+250. I haven't had the time to figure out why. Other than that, it APPEARS to be working correctly -- the documents that I printed end up in the "MultiSpool Folder" in the "System Folder". My configuration (at home, where I need this): System 6.0.3 4meg MacPlus Multifinder (with Backgrounder, etc). Has anyone been able to get in touch with the author of Multispool ? If I can get this to work, I'll send off my shareware fee IMMEDIATELY, in whatever form and denomination he'd like it. M. A. Pasek Software Development NCR Comten, Inc.
