This is an old problem I've been having but it has only just assumed some
significance, and I have only just got hooked into the net.  Any help would be
most appreciated. The problem is this.  I can't persuade SuperPaint 2.0 to
print from the draw layer to a LaserWriter (Plus or IINT). It prints bitmaps
just fine.  Occasionally it tells me that the LaserWriter driver has thrown an
error, but more often it just gives me the starting job box, the box
disappears, the drive rattles and that is it.  No output. I'm using an SE/30,
5MB of RAM, System 6.0.5 and driver 6.0.1, and the problem is there whether I
have all my INITs installed or none of them. It prints OK with driver 5.2, but
nobody else on our local network uses 5.2. Has anyone else had the problem, and
if so what is the cure?
Also I tried SuperPaint 2.0 on a colleague's IIsi and it crashed the machine
with the error message "unable to find co-processor" - one is installed.  Since
I could find myself working on a IIsi in a month, I wonder if this has happened
to anyone else? Our New Zealand distributor has no answers.
Please e-mail replies.  I will post a summary.
Thanks
