I have the SAME problem. I have Transwarp GS in 3, SCSI card in 6, Appletalk turned on using the printer port. The only thing on Appletalk is the printer and my GS. I think Apple changed the printer drivers or Claris doesn't access them in the standard way because under GSOS 4.0 I could print a 10 or 20 page document without receiving the "document cannot be printed error". Also I could use the AWGS graphic segment and draw lines and boxes using the "object oriented" tools, when printed a diagonal line was without jaggies(ie at the highest resolution of the Laser printer.). Under GSOS 5.0 printing the same document yeilds a bitmap picture(ie diagonal lines are jagged like they would be on Imagewriter or the screen). All of the printed text prints properly like Postscript so I don't think I have an settings wrong, this leads me to beleive that it is a driver problem. One note though, I used TopDraw to print an object oriented drawing and it printed out correctly, in full Postscript. Do any of the Apple or Claris personal have any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong or where the error might lie? BTW these tests have been duplicated on 2 diffent machines using 2 different laserprinters but both have similar setups (one has a Sider, mine has a SCSI). Thanks in advance.
