Hi,

I just recently got a version of Multispool, and tried to used it on
my Mac IIfx with my Deskwriter (v2.1 driver) hooked up via Appletalk.
The program craps out consistently.  When I go the the Multispool
item in the Apple menu, the dialog box that comes up shows all the
normal things along with a message that says "Background printer not
present".  If I catually try to print something the program bombs,
usually due to the stack expanding into the heap are (thank you TMON).

Does anybody have any info on whether or not Multispool will work
with the Deskwriter hooked up via Appletalk, or is the problem
something else??

Thanks in advance,
