AFAICR there isn't an Apple driver compatible for the LS with any Mac OS later than 9.1. Didn't you read the docs that came with the driver? I'm sure it's in there as well as on google. You might be able to use the printer under OS X if you have an Ethernet interface in the printer and use open source software, but I don't recall how common Ethernet was in that model. I have a similar problem with a LaserWriter NTX that lacks Ethernet and so won't work under OS X AFAIK. Any ideas where I can pick up an Ethernet card this printer for close to nothing? <grin> I guess I'll give it away otherwise. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
