Carpenter) Organization: St. Joseph's University, Phila. PA. Lines: 17 After setting up my NeXT and connecting the laser printer, I tried to print a WriteNow file, only to receive the message that there was no printer connected to the Cube. I double checked the cables and power cord--everything was fine. But for some reason, the NeXT just won't recognize the presence of the printer (a NeXT laser printer, connected with NeXT cable). Is there something obvious I'm forgetting? The PrintManager panel lists the NeXT printer, and I have "chosen" it on the Print panel, but I still get the message "There is no printer connected to your local computer." Has anyone else had this problem? -- =============================================================== David Carpenter dcarpent@sjuvax.UUCP St. Joseph's University dcarpent%sjuvax.sju.edu@relay.cs.net Philadelphia, PA 19131 ST_JOSEPH@HVRFORD.BITNET
