Does anyone know how to get the new LaserWriter 6.1 driver to work under AUX. I know you have to use the new Backgrounder and PrintMonitor but I have not tried to put them in the AUX system folder. Does anyone know if they work? I am running AUX 2.0.1 and MacOS 6.0.7.

Put the 3 files in /mac/sys/System Folder (or in your personal system folder, if you have such.) Logout and re-login. Re-choose the printer. It works fine. You can remove the "Laser Prep" file, as it is no longer needed with 6.1. >I am running AUX 2.0.1 and MacOS 6.0.7. So am I. --Brian Bechtel blob@apple.com "My opinion, not Apple's"
