Jared,
Yes, I am using a network connection, and yes, all the cables are
connected. I am using LaserWriter 8 (v. 8.5.6). I have a Printer
Descriptions folder inside the Extensions folder. The Brother printer
is in there along with all the Apple LaserWriter printers. But again,
when I select LW8 in the Chooser, I don't get ANY PostScript printers
to select from. I don't get it. I'm going to try to reinstall LW8.
Anything else I'm missing? Thanks!
Gary

Excuse me, put the extension in manually.

Greetings. This may be too specific a question. I have a Brother
HL-1870N networked laser printer. I am trying to install the
driver onto my PB2400c running OS 8.6. The driver is supposed to
be compatible. The installation process appears to proceed
normally. Then I go to the Chooser and click on the LaserWriter 8
icon in the left-hand window. This is supposed to bring-up a
PostScript Printer for me to select in the right-hand window.
However, when I click on the LW8 icon no printer selections are
available in the right-hand window. When I try to find the driver
extension in the Extensions folder, or elsewhere it is nowhere to
be found! I don't get it. Suggestions?

Greetings again. I found the Brother Printers in the Printer
Descriptions folder inside the Extensions folder. But my question
remains. Why isn't the printer list showing-up in the Chooser? Thanks.

Are your cables correctly connected, and if so, is it switched on. I
assume you are using a networked connection?
