I have an Apple LaserWriter 16/600 (on topic) that we share between a Mac hooked via ethernet (on topic) and a IBM laptop hooked via parallel cable running win98se (the off topic part).
The printer prints fine from the Mac. The problem I am having is that when I print from the laptop using the win 98se printer driver, I get one line of mostly text that starts with 51PS=QT and has a bunch of other letters, numbers and a couple of special characters. The line of text is the same whether I am printing text or graphics. The printer was working fine yesterday (nothing added or changed in the setup).
I am guessing that the postscript driver got trashed somehow. I have deleted the printer and removed the files that were used just for that printer and reinstalled a couple of times with no improvement.
Does anyone know what the name of the postscript driver is so that I can manually trash and reinstall it? Or does anyone have any other ideas?
It sounds like the printer parallel port connection may not be set for postscript.
