[comp.sys.mac.system] System 7 f3c2 and printing

brett@aardvark.ucs.uoknor.edu (Brett Morrow) (04/26/91)

I have just started running System 7 F3c2 and I have a problem that
maybe someone can help me with.  

We are running several macs here all linked to a LaserWriter IINTX.
All the other macs are running system 6.0.7 and print 6.1.  

I have tried this over localtalk and ehtertalk 2.1 thru a Gator Box.
When I print I get 1 of 2 results. 1 a bunch of blank pages or
2 nothing at all. On this end print monitor comes on and runs and
exits ok but no print.  If I print a title page, it comes out
but no output except blank pages follow.  

I have even tried reloading the operating system, but this did not work.  I can
get it to work if I turn off background printing.

Anyone else have this problem or know a probable cause?
