My gremlin-infested 9600/200/G3/OS9.1/lotsa RAM has an external SCSI Zip drive attached to the SCSI port on my Scanmaker E6 scanner (old but solid & reliable), which is connected to the external SCSI bus.

If I pop a Zipdisc into the drive no icon appears on-screen. I had to figure out for myself that I had to click on the Iomega Guest CP to activate the drive... it loads the driver (v5.1.1) each time I want to use the drive! So I have a CP alias on the desktop.

This is ridiculous. I'm not the guest, I'm the USER. How can I correct this?

I have an internal drive and Jaz drive too, which I will fit as soon as I can find a long internal SCSI cable, and expect that I may have the same problem...

I just checked Apple System Profiler. The Zip drive does not appear on ASP when connected, even when it's running and a disc is there on the desktop...
