AppleWriter II (ProDOS): Printing from an Apple IIGS The Applewriter program works fine on the Apple IIGS until the program locks up when you try to have it print through the Apple IIGS's serial ports. If a Super Serial Card with an ImageWriter or an ImageWriter II with an AppleTalk option is used, AppleWriter prints fine. The problem occurs with prints to the internal Apple IIGS serial ports. AppleWriter may address and only address the Super Serial Card's communications chip and not the Apple IIGS's communications chip. Apple Technical Communications Note: Don Lancaster has come up with a Patch for Applewriter to allow it to print with the //gs internal port. See his articles in Computer Shopper March, 1987 page 108 or the May 87 Open-Apple. I can post these very short patches to the net if there is interest. Rick Fincher ranger@ecsvax Rick@ncsuvm (Bitnet)
