[comp.sys.mac.system] Type 28 error on PrintMonitor

rkmossm@PacBell.COM (Richard Mossman) (06/04/91)

Wouldn't you know it?  I just got done telling someone about how I've been
running Sys 7 for over a week with no failures and the PrintMonitor starts
acting up.

I've been trying to print things from Word, MacTerminal, and even the Finder
all day and keep getting a Type 28 error.  I got a message that mentioned an
Unimplemented Trap once.

I have tried reloading the PrintMonitor, LaserWriter driver, and LaserPrep.
I turned off the Laserwriter and back on (BTW it's a laserwriter, not
a Laserwriter II, or Laserwriter N** or anything else that came from this
decade).  Whatever the problem is, it sometimes caused my Mac IIcx to freeze
necessitating that I push the restart button.

Once it even clobbered the Lan session I was running.

Basically, until someone can tell me how to proceed, I'll just have to
print everything at home.

FYI: I am using a Mac IIcx with 4 MB RAM, an 80 MB interanl HD and a 20 MB
external Hyperdrive FX 20.

At the risk of being perceived as casting dispersions, I will say that the 
first time the problem arose was after I downloaded the demo version of 
FastEnvelope and tried to create and print an envelope.  I am NOT saying that
is any kind of culprit, simply offering the information.  (Maybe there is some
incompatibility or something that I did/didn't do that is causing the problem)

Once someone can get me printing again, I will continue to be high on Sys 7.

HHHHEEEEEELLLLLPPPPP!!!!!!
