sam@andromeda.rutgers.edu (Samuel B Tantuico) (01/22/91)

I've acquired the use of an old imagewriter purchased in 1983.  
I've attached the proper cables and sent a job to the printer, but
it doesn't seem to work!!!  

Can anyone help me or give suggestions???   

Thanks in advance...

What version of the Imagewriter driver are you using?  Have you selected the Imagewriter in the Chooser DA?  If you are really are using the right cables and you have the right driver, it should work fine.  I've used my old Imagewriter with a Plus, an Mac II, and now with my II fx with no problems that aren't inherent in this printer.

Also, once in the chooser, make sure that AppleTalk is INACTIVE (assuming that
you're not on an AppleTalk Network).  Then make sure that your ImageWriter is
assigned to the printer port.  Get out of the Chooser and try sending your job.

I hope this helps you.
