I discovered, I think, a bug in Mcwrite that has not been reported yet. I
selected 5 documents in the finder and selected print. I selected the DRAFT
mode. After print a page or so, an Alert box came up saying the printer
was not responding. After the printer's buffer emptied, clicking OK in the
box started printing again.  You could also click OK while printing
continued but you just got the box back again faster.

It appears that once the printer's buffer fills up, Macwrite does not
wait and try again, at least under these conditions. The problem never
occurred before, even when printing a long document in draft from Macwrite.
All of the documents were in the Seattle-10 font.
