Hi All: >No one said you HAVE to restart via the Startup Disk control panel. >Select the OS X system folder, then close the control panel. Go to the >Special menu and choose Restart.
Chris, as mentioned in my long winded account, Restarting from the Menu Bar (Special) created the same problem - ONLY a forced Restart worked. >>> I go to the Chooser each time and select the only printer >>> there.

The laptop also prints in OSX when the printer is plugged into the iMac through printer sharing. The printer (Epson R300) has OS 9 and X printer drivers installed on the laptop. It is a mystery to me why it will work booted into OS9 and OSX but not in Classic. But I am happy to let it remain a mystery and just cut and paste in the future! Thanks again for everyone's help, Tannis ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
