Ah, one of the most frequent questions on the net. ! ! I recommend upgrading your printer driver on S6 to 6.1 from 5.2 (which ! you have now). The 6.1 versions are also available on ftp.apple.com in ! one of the directories. I cannot remember it right now. It is an ! additional disk that supports typetype and is initialization compat. ! with S7. The disk is /dts/mac/sys.soft/truetype/mac-printing-tools.hqx. !........................ John Norstad's free document "How to Install System 7" recommends you upgrade with the System 7 "Printing" disk. / (.__o /_/ __/ .. ! / ! Juha.Hyvonen@hut.fi (juh@cs.hut.fi) !/ ) ! ------
