Has anyone else had any problems with Imagewriter II printing under System 
7.0? My system is an SE/30 with 5 megs ram. To print an average formatted 
letter-sized page using Word 4.0c, ATM V2.0 (significant memory set aside 
for ATM and for the ram cache) and 1 Adobe Type 1 font in best quality on an 
Imagewriter II, with no other applications or DAs open, has taken 15-20 
minutes PER PAGE!!!
This 15 MINUTERS PER PAGE is true whether the printer fonts and screen fonts 
are in a folder together on top layer of the disk or, as Adobe recommends - 
screen fonts installed inthe System and printe fonts loose in the System 
Folder (as opposed to being in the Extension folder).
Of course to make matters WORSE (could it be?), MultiSpool no longer 
functions under System 7 (YES, I was one who had no problems with it under 
6.0.5) and to spend almost 2 hours with the computer tied up to print a 
standard business document is, to put it mildly, un-acceptable.
Does anyone else (1) have similar problems, (2) suggestions as to what might 
be the problem, even if a solution is not known, or (3) other avenues of 
exploration to go to solve the problem?
