The application mentioned above doesn't seem to do anything. You are always able to select the laserwriter if you use the Control panel to "turn on" Appletalk, (even if it doesn't really exist), so this is not the problem. I continue to get the "Looking for Laserwriter" box. As before, the control-f feature works. Mr. Lamy, have you tried this without a Laserwriter attached? I am clicking on the Laserwriter box's OK and immediately pressing control-k. Am I doing something wrong? (I've got a Mac+ and System 3.0) Anyone have any further ideas on this? -- Mitch Che Pacific Bell "No matter what the salesman --------------------------------------- says, never buy a used car disclaimer, disclaimer, disclaimer, too lying on its side..."
