Re: Print problems with System 6.0.1

Shannon--
     There shouldn't be a problem printing with these two programs--I 
don't think you'll need patches.  Post some info about your printer, 
interface (GS printer port, parallel, or Appletalk), and the drivers 
you are trying to use.  With this info, we might be able to help you 
out.
