I have also used LaserSpeed/TOPS Spool (They're the same thing!) and found it to work well. I haven't compared the two head to head to recommend one versus the other. Tops Spool came when I bought TOPS, SuperLaserSpool when I bought a Dataframe hard disk. The current verson of SLS doesn't run on a Mac II, but I understand SuperMac is preparing a new version that solves these problems. -Richard richard_vernon_ford@cup.portal.com PS: Current versions of both packages have problems with version 5.0 of the Laserwriter drivers. Using version 4 solves them.

Using version 4 solves them. Not quite correct; version 1.6 of LaserSpeed does work with version 5.0 of the LaserWriter drivers, and is coexistent with Apple's background printing scheme; if you turn on background printing in the Chooser, LaserSpeed won't spool until you turn it off again... --Rich Rich Siegel THINK Technologies Rich Siegel Quality Assurance Technician THINK Technologies Division, Symantec Corp.
