Go to Preferences and set the Monochrome print mode, not color.  That's what
it's complaining about.  I use it all the time, from Hard Disk, and via the
MPS-1000 print driver.

Another useful thing to try with PageSetter is the PagePrint program.  There's
a bug in some print drivers that causes a raster line or so to be skipped
between consecutive dumps of RastPorts.  When you print a page from within
PageSetter, it sends that page as several RastPorts, even if you have lots
of memory.  If you instead print the document with PagePrint, it's printed
as one big RastPort.  Plus, you have the advantage of being able to do a
"Run PagePrint Doc1" while you use PageSetter on Doc2.
