I recently upgraded a slot-loading iMac from MacOSX 2 to 3.8. Since

Connections are solid, and it prints a test sheet without problems. It
worked fine previously.
LaserWriter Select 360, Serial adapter/Ethernet connection.
You do NOT say that you have deleted the Printer from the Printer Setup
Centre ,
and then set it up afresh !
There were quite some changes between Jaguar and Panther !
For example in Jaguar some printers needed Gimp Print and then
also Ghostscrip to be installed to set up some specific printers .
Panther description says Ghostscrip is no longer needed ...... But
for some specials ghostscrip still needs to be installed.
eg ... Printing from OSX to a Stylewriter.
Also... for some specials you need to setup PPD files . These really
stretching my understanding ... but I follow what instructions I can
find.
Have fun

Can anyone offer suggestions on what to try next?
