Almost every application that I have at times tells me that the LQ is not connected when in fact it is because the darn thing is right next to me and I can see it (whew). I have the problem with word processing applications, MPW, and others. Is anybody else having the same alert box pop up on them? It is random as heck and occurs at the start, finsh, or middle of a print job. I have version 1.0 of the driver for the LQ. Could that be my problem? I'm almost positive that the cable I'm using is good, since it's new and I've even tried another one. Also, when trying to print using MPW, MPW claims that the command "print -q DRAFT " works only with ImageWriters. The LQ is one, right? I'd sure like to print long listings at draft rather that the HIGH quality the stupid thing does now. Anyone else who uses MPW have the same problem? Am I missing something? Help me before I throw the damn thing out the window. ||+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++|| || Blayne Puklich ndsuvax!nopuklic || || NDSU Student ACM use this-> NU087763@NDSUVM1 || || Chairperson North Dakota State University.
