Has anyone had luck using an Imagewriter II printer with an A1000? I'm having problems with lost characters and tabs. I'd appreciate any comments. Cheers, steve {rochester!kodak!crispino} {rochester!ritcv!ritisis!sjc4493}

Set the printer and preferences to RTS/CTS mode. All\ should work then. If it doesn't, you may have blown the output chips on the printer. Listed below is a company that sells a cable that goes directly from an A1000 to an Apple Imagewriter II. We use one here at CBM and it seems to work fine.
