(full details in previous posting, synopsis is that I'm hooking up an
epson-compatible via a grappler to my mac, I've never had an
imagewriter itself to know if that configuration causes the same problem)

Subsequently, I have found that I can "print selection" in versaterm
3.10, but trying to print in Word fails as it does in finder.  Word
tells me something about can't open printer, where finder tells me
that a printer file must be missing (though some of the time when I
tested it just told me something like "unspecified error" (sorry but I
could't select and copy the error messages).  (Oh, yes, chooser thinks
appletalk is inactive).  Does anyone have an inkling as to why
printing works with versaterm but not others (that I really want to
print with)?

Again, help is desperately needed and greatly appreciated.
