For months, I'd been unable to get Background Printing to work; jobs
would either disappear, print blank pages, or Print Monitor would crash,
requiring power cycling the machine to recover.

Finally, I replaced LaserWriter and Laser Prep versions 6.0 with the 5.2
versions.  Immediately, background printing worked fine and has now been
solid for a week.  Thanks to the person at the Computer Edge, Mt. Kisco,
NY, who told me that the versions of LW, LP, Print Monitor, and
Backgrounder must all be compatible.

Is this a known problem with LW/LP 6.0?  Is it fixed yet?  Anyone using
6.0 for color printing needs to know.
