From: Dick Kalagher <kalagher@mitre> I discovered, I think, a bug in Mcwrite that has not been reported yet. I selected 5 documents in the finder and selected print. I selected the DRAFT mode. After print a page or so, an Alert box came up saying the printer was not responding. After the printer's buffer emptied, clicking OK in the box started printing again. You could also click OK while printing continued but you just got the box back again faster. It appears that once the printer's buffer fills up, Macwrite does not wait and try again, at least under these conditions. The problem never occurred before, even when printing a long document in draft from Macwrite. All of the documents were in the Seattle-10 font.
