One of our users decided that she wanted to use MultiFinder, but after turning it on, the background print function doesn't work. The PrintMonitor icon flashes on the apple menu, and selecting PM just brings up the notice that 'where=6, why=-37'. Tremendously useful information. Now what? I've (yes I actually did this) READ THE MANUAL! We do have the background printing button checked ON. I did notice that spool files, ie SpoolFile1, was being created in the system folder. Double clicking on that just brings up PM with its informative message. I'm sure this has been discussed before, but since I don't know how to access the archives, you all get to see it again.
