Re: printing ?
I would try moving data from her desktop to her hard drive. If that fails then dump from the hard drive to make more memory. If it's important stuff put it on CD's first. I too use an old i-Mac.

Enabling Rendezvous printing
Hello listers, Recently acquired a Brother HL-2040 printer for use with my iBook G4 running 10.3.9. After installing the driver, I plugged in the USB cable to the printer, the printer appeared under USB in Printerconfiguration, and I was immediately able to print. I then connected the printer to my Aiport Base station and tried to do the same. However, the printer doesn't show under Rendezvous in the Printerconfiguration utility and I am unable to print. I am probably missing something but have no clue what that might be. Any suggestions more than welcome, thanks, Peter -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: mac to windows printing
The PC has to have some kind of printer sharing ability. Macs can do this, but I don't know about PCs, particularly PCs sharing their USB printers with Macs. One way I would approach it would be to attach the printer to the Mac and turn on printer sharing. This, of course, would prevent printing when the Mac isn't hooked into the network. But with the network set up as you describe any printer sharing has to be done in the PC universe and I don't know much about that part of the cosmos. If you don't print much you could always just plug the printer into your USB port on the Pismo when you need to print.

Re: mac to windows printing
Vicki, Have you tried going to PREFERENCES in your Powerbook, go to sharing and check printer sharing. I did this to my desktop Mac Mini (where the printer is connected to the USB) and my powerbook G4 (which runs wireless thru my NetGear) and it works ok. You have to turn on PRINTER SHARING too with WINDOWS PC. I am not familiar though on how you turn on PRINTER SHARING with WINDOWS PC but I am sure you can.

Setup a folder on the Win2k box as a network share, and then do CMD+K from the Finder on the Mac (obviously) and type in smb://win2kbox/ but replace 'win2kbox' with the NetBIOS name of your Win2k box. It will ask you for your username, password, and domain (which should already be filled in). Enter the appropriate information (as if you were logging into the Win2k box) and then try printing again.

printing/SimpleText problems
(My apologies if this has been recently covered; I subscribe but rarely read.) I have an Epson Stylus Photo 780 printer which is 2-3 years old. I seldom print stuff, so whenever I do I usually have to clean the print heads. It seems the only way to do so is via software, and the only software that seems to do it is in OS9. I can't find anything in 10.4 to do this; when I try to query the ink levels via the printer utility, it says information not available. I have 10.4 and 9.2.2 on separate volumes. I would launch SimpleText either from Classic or by booting in 9, and use the printer tools button on the Print dialog box. Since installing 10.4, that button is gone, even when I boot 9 from its own disc!

Re: Printing and Wireless Connectivity
The connect light on the router or EtherPrint don't care about protocols such as AppleTalk, they are just looking for a valid Ethernet connection. If the light isn't coming on you have a problem. Guessing that the router's switch is 10/100 there MAY be an issue with the EtherPrint and 10/100 auto-sensing. Some older 10BaseT hardware doesn't work well with 10/100 gear, the auto-sensing gets confused. Asante 10BaseT stuff in particular was prone to this. However, IIRC the EtherPrint-3 was iMac vintage equipment meant to link the old and the new. The iMacs had 10/100 so it should work. The solution to the auto-sensing problem is to stick a 10BaseT hub That is easy enough. I have an old hub sitting around that would do the job.

Re: Printing and Wireless Connectivity
Thank-you to everyone that responded. Collectively your advice was very helpful. Here is my initial problem and the solution. Problem: I could connect wirelessly to the internet or print to my old Laserwriter but not both at the same time. Solution: New network configuration. DSL modem to WAN port on wireless router, LAN port on wireless router to LAN port on wired router, DHCP turned off on wired router, IP address changed on wired router, wired router rebooted. I can now connect to the internet and print to my LaserWriter wirelessly. I still don't know why the wireless router doesn't connect with my printer but with this setup it doesn't matter. Absolutely wonderful.

This setup works flawlessly. Of course, this is under 8.6 to 9.2.2, and it is wired. I am not sure if it would play nice with OS X. I don't see why it would not, though. The router on the network there is a LinkSys, and AppleTalk is officially not a supported protocol. I am running a Netgear on the network here, and it seems to play nice with AppleTalk to the NeXT Laser Printer. Again, wired network and my machine is running 9.2.2. The NeXTstation is running OPENSTEP and Columbia AppleTalk Protocol (CAPer by Frank Siegert). In effect, the NeXT spools print jobs from the Mac, and digests them for the printer, which hasn't got any brains. Since your problem is that WiFi doesn't like the AppleTalk, IP printing does seem like the logical solution. But, you can't give the 4/600 an IP address. Just a thought but, what if you were to try specifying the IP address of the host which the printer is physically plugged into (herein called hostof4/600PS) as the address for IP printing? If you run LocalTalk Bridge on hostof4/600PS, which I assume you are doing, I would think that it might work. The reason I think this is that with LocalTalk Bridge, you are printing to a printer that does not physically exist on the ethernet network anyhow. As long as the print request gets to hostof4/600PS, IMO LocalTalk Bridge should look after the rest. At least, that would seem logical ... which means it probably won't work.

Printing and Wireless Connectivity
I am having trouble with my network and I don't even know what to call the problem I am having or where to search for answers. I have 3 devices I want to connect: a PowerBook G4 using airport (10.3.7), a BW G3 using an Ethernet cable (10.2.8), and an Apple LaserWriter 4/600PS using a serial to Ethernet bridge. I am using a SMC wireless router to connect them all (SMC2804WBRP-G). Here is my problem: 1. If I plug the printer into the wireless router the router does not recognize it and will not route print jobs to it. 2. If I plug the printer into my non-wireless router (SMC7004VBR) the printer is recognized and I can send print jobs but it is not wireless. 3. If I chain the two routers together by plugging one of the ports on the wireless router into the Wan port of the non-wireless router I can access the internet wirelessly but I can't print. 4, If I chain the two routers together by plugging one of the ports on the wireless router into a Lan port on the non-wireless router I can print but I can't access the internet wirelessly. Clearly there is some funky network stuff going on here but it is way out of my league. Any suggestions? Where do I look for help?

Mark, Are you sure that the wireless router you're trying to use supports AppleTalk? I'm not sure how the serial to Ethernet bridge works in details, but I would imagine that when it gets to the bridge, the information is embedded into AppleTalk over Ethernet packets.

Re: wreless printing
Well, I'm running 10.3.7 on all of my Macs and have the Airport Extreme Base Station and Airport Express to boost the signal to the back of the house. I have USB printers on each and it is very effortless to print to whichever printer is closer. The original poster stated that he was running a G4 and some laptop (I don't remember which).so I would assume that he would run the latest OS?

SmartMedia printing on the road
I was following the thread on SmartMedia cards. I was wondering what you folks do when on the road in terms of printing. I suppose my questions are: -any good tiny weensy printers one can usefully take along? I googled for it and came up either with very expensive ones or very bulky ones, or both, or perhaps those needing proprietary paper like fax paper. Is there really nothing clever and spacesaving that can print a few A4 sheets when you're stuck in a hotel room and need to print out the latest version of your paper or whatever? -I was thinking of getting one of those cute USB flash memory card that you can plug into your 'book and move your files there, then go to a print shop and have them printed. That seems a good alternative, provided one has access to printing shops nearby and that they accept such a medium (never asked or tried, so far). But: we have an external Firewire LaCie (one of the Porsche models) that we use for backup. Tried to take that to a print shop and their machine would not 'see' the drive, which came formatted from LaCie and I hadn't bother reformatting. Given that Panther recognised it without a hitch, I assumed (for some reason) that Windows machines would be equally accommodating. The 'net sites selling these flash cards (like Crucial) say 'mac and pc compatible'. Anyone has any experience of taking files on one of these things and getting them printed on the road without hassle? -given that both our 12 Albook and 20 iMac G5 have Bluetoooth, I was also wondering whether one can get any of these cards with Bluetooth in them so that one doesn't even need to plug them into the USB socket? Maybe this is impossible/impractical, because rather extensive googling returned no joy in that department. In short: I would be interested (and grateful) to know what you guys consider to be the best option for fully compatible printing when on the road. Thanks in advance for all your fantastic tips and apologies if the questions sound daft... Walter -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Wireless printing
A few days back I posted about my troubles getting my printer to work on my new wireless network, thanks in part to the advice I received on here. I managed to make it work, but not in the way I had originally planned to. After screwing with it and getting no where I decided to try it from another angle. I plugged it in to my G3 iMac and set it up to be shared from there. Worked like a charm. I think I may know now what I was doing wrong and may be able to get it to work on the base station, but for now I'll stick with the working setup I have.

Re: AIrport Extreme Printing.
I tried to get some help in the apple forums, but have had no luck so far. This week I got an Airport extreme base station to go along with my iBook G4. Setting up a network was pretty easy- I have my iMac G3 wired in, and the iBook connects wirelessly with an airport extreme card. The built in modem is great, lets me connect to my ISP via 56k, which is my only option right now, wirelessly. The network works great, except for the printer I have plugged into the base station. I have a HP PSC 750 plugged into the base station USB port. The software for it is loaded on both the iBook and the iMac, and both computers see the printer in the network via the rendevous selection, but I can not access it with either computer in any way shape or form. The one lead I have is that when trying to access the printer via rendevous it says the drivers are not loaded. Can anyone help? TIA, Brian HP drivers are usually awful... may I inquire what is the version of the driver you have? 6.3.6 (the one, regrettably, in the hp site the last time I checked) is a total disaster. The previous, 6.3.4, is better. The first thing I would do is revert to version 6.3.4, if possible. IIRC, my printer had written in the box something to the effect of networking NOT supported; but, since mine has worked, even wirelessly, via usb printer sharing, i'd say there is hope. I think you should add the printer as HP all in one printing (or something to that effect), not as rendezvous. You should then be given a choice of usb or tcp/ip; the logical thing then would be to choose tcp/ip and put the ip address of the base station (probably 10.0.0.1, but you can find that out with Airport Admin Utility). I don't have a base station with print server, so I cannot test this. HTH Luis Sequeira I -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I can't stress enough how I'm flying by the seat of my pants in this area, but here's what he needs to do, as I understand it: 1. Download and install Gimp-print and ESP GhostScript from here: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 Gimp-print is an ongoing project to provide drivers for hundreds of unsupported printers (Peter's printer is one of them); ESPGS has something to do with PostScript interpretation, and apparently is essential. 2. Now the slightly tricky part. A kind soul has made the pre-compiled serial support for CUPS available for download here:http://homepage.mac.com/laurentvonallmen/FileSharing3.html. (Without this, you would have to download the source code for CUPS, compile it in gcc in Developer Tools, etc, so it's a HUGE help ). Download the CSW2400.tar.gz-link.gz file, which is actually a complete kit for getting a Stylewriter 2400 to work. Peter can ignore most everything in that folder except the serial file, which needs to be moved into this OS X directory: usr/libexec/cups/backend. I'm sure you have to be logged in as root to do this, unless you know how to do it in Terminal. The directions in the CSW2400 package probably have some useful info about this. 3. Once this file is where it belongs, restart the computer and open any web browser. Type in this URL: localhost:631 This opens the Web interface to CUPS, and it's just a matter of following the steps, starting with Add a Printer to choose the printer and the right port. Once done, the printer SHOULD appear in Print Center. *** -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Printing In Reverse

With different programs (Word, Appleworks, Safari) and different printers (Brother, Epson), we are consistently getting printouts that are in the reverse order (last page first and so forth).

In some cases with Word, a section will print in reverse, then the next section will print in the correct order, even though the formatting is the same for both sections. From the old days when printers were hell to configure, it seems to me that Panther is sending some kind of code to the printers that reverses printing, but I do not know how to fix this.

Is anybody else getting reverse printing with Panther? Does anybody know a cure for this? John -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Moving to X - printing labels question
I got a closeout 17 powerbook (1GHz) for Christmas, and am slowly preparing to transfer to it and OS 10.3 from my WallStreet running 9.2.2. However, I have a couple of questions. OK, so they seem piddling little details, but they can be annoying if I don't figure the easiest way to handle them. To start, in Address Book, can you choose any other than the first label on a sheet to print to? I'm hoping I'll be able to have ONE address book instead of my current 2 (Eudora for email addresses Palm Desktop for the rest), but playing with Apple's address book, I can't find any way to tell it WHICH label to print (i.e. the 6th one, which would be the 3rd one in the 2nd row of a 30-label sheet). Palm Desktop Now-Up-To-Date made that easy, just click on the label or type a label # into a box. Does Address Book have something I'm missing, or do I have to make a separate template for each label on the sheet? (or at least each label in 1/2 the sheet, then flip.)

Pismo printing problems..Slightly OT
Greetings, I have been using an Apple LaserWriter300 via a Keyspan Serial/USB converter with my Pismo (10.3.1)It had been working well until early this week when I got the message Scanner Motor Malfunction while trying to print.

Wireless with Lombard and Silver Wavelan, wireless printing
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 09:20:57 -0400 Subject: Re: using a PowerBook Wallstreet 300 in a coffee shop? From: w miller caribsea(a-t)bellsouth.net I finally was able to sit in my recliner with my Lombard (OS 9.2.2) on my lap, happily checking email and accessing the Internet. I downloaded the driver for my Wavelan Silver card from IOXperts and it works! I thought I would mention that they told me to disable Airport in order to use the card. I did, and it does work. I've had good luck using my Wavelan Silver card in my Lombard using the Apple Airport drivers (OS 9.2.2). BTW, I have a Linksys wireless router. Me too. Does anyone have experience with printing through this system? I had the powerprint setup with my wallstreet (Wavelan Silver and OS 9.2.2), I haven't set it up on the Lombard yet but I think it should work. http://www.strydent.com/strydent-software-products/powerprint-networks.html The powerprint hardware is a box that plugs into the printer (parallel port) and the network (ethernet). The software is a Powerprint printer driver for your specific printer. They have a list of the printers that they have drivers for on the website. The set-up worked nicely with my Canon BJC 4550 inkjet. I got mine from E-bay, I think it might be an orphaned product (not available new).

Infrared printing wallstreet
Just bought a portable HP DeskJet 340 printer hoping to persuade it to be friends with my wallstreet. In the absence of a parallel printer socket on the wallstreet, I tried the infrared port (the DeskJet was supplied with a neat infrared adapter that plugs into the centronix port. In OS9, and following HP instructions, I can at least get the infrared port of the mac to see the printer, then using AppleTalk by infrared it got very close to printing. But on OSX I could find no way to configure AppleTalk to connect over infrared in the network control panel, and there was no way in the add printer utility to add through an infrared port. Its a neat printer, and if anyone can suggest a way to make these things talk to each other I would much appreciate. Chris -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

printing from USB (Lombard, OS 9.2.2) to serial (CanonBJC4550)
Hello all I'm just settling in with my new Lombard (400 Mhz, OS 9.2.2) and am starting to think about printing. Is there a USB to Serial converter that I can plug into the back? Would such a converter cost more than a new USB printer?

printing from USB (Lombard, OS 9.2.2) to serial (Canon
Not sure if this will help, but I needed to print from my Lombard to my Apple Laserwriter 4/600 (serial). I got an Asante unit on eBay and it works great through ethernet with a crossover cable. You have to make sure you get the correct Asante Talk (I'm not at home and can't tell you which it is). I got a wrong one first. I don't know about Canon printers, but if you have the driver and it's serial, I don't know why this wouldn't work. The ethernet cable goes from the Lombard to the Asante and a cable out of the Asante goes to the serial printer. Willi -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Network printing
Help! I am trying to get my Ti-400 system 9.2 laptop to print at the office, whose staff is very PC oriented and can't seem to make it work.

Excruciatingly slow printing in OS X
I cannot believe how s-l-o-w printing to my Epson Stylus Photo 870 printer is. I've got a 400 MHz TiBook, 512 MB of RAM, Mac OS 10.2.3, and a fast 20 GB IBM hard drive (one of the 5400 rpm models - zoom). Under OS 9, the Stylus would pop out one page after another. Under OS X, it stops for a long time between sheets. Probably takes 4 times as long to print a multiple page job. Any suggestions on how this might be improved? Thanks!

Re: Excruciatingly slow printing in OS X
I am using a photo stylus 1200 and downloaded all the new drivers off of epson for it. It prints just as fast as OS9 but I do not have the ability to change to all the paper sizes and high end printing as in OS9. I downloade gimp print but have not have had a chance to use it. can't clean the heads as in OS9 either so I switch back and forth.

Re: Excruciatingly slow printing in OS X
Do you have the most recent drivers form Epson? I see that their released the most recent driver in November of last year. (It says 10.0-10.1 only, however my Epson Photo 820 runs fine with the driver that says 10.1.3-10.1.5 only.) I had big troubles with Epson 820's back when I was in 10.1 with the Print Center crashing, but in Jaguar things are better. If you have the latest driver, you may try using Print Center Repair (search for it on VersionTracker.com) and see if this solves anything. -April Dan Knight wrote: I cannot believe how s-l-o-w printing to my Epson Stylus Photo 870 printer is.

How silly of me to assume that because OS X recognized the printer that it had the right drivers installed. I downloaded Epson's drivers, installed them (what a process!), restarted the TiBook (grr), and am printing nearly as fast as I used to in OS 9. Thanks!

I've just finished upgrading the Wallstreet to 9.2.2 so I can use the later Airport card drivers for my Lucent wireless card.

Wireless printing problem ...
Hi: Hoping someone has been down this route ... I have the following hardware setup ... Titanium 667 Powerbook running OS 10.2.3 Asante FriendlyNET AeroLAN PDMCIA Card - AL1011 Asante FriendlyNET Wireless Rounter - FR3202AL-1PCM I can printer when hooked up via ethernet to an Apple Laser Select 360, but when I try wireless it won't go through. The error messages I get are that printer isn't responding or that appletalk isn't active. I've worked with both Apple and Asante in the past and they did a pretty good job of pointing the finger at each other. However, after waiting several months I called Apple back and a rep. was very friendly and helpful in troubleshooting what might be going on. After going through a number of troubleshooting procedures we believe we are on to something. He thinks that these two ports aren't open (or at least one of them isn't open). Port# 548 and port# 427. He thinks that the Appletalk signal is being sent out to the printer, but the powerbook isn't being replied to by the printer because of a blocked port. Has anybody went through the process of unblocking a port or at least checking to see if one or the other is closed? Although I was real comfortable with tinkering around OS 9, some of the OS X stuff has me at a loss ... would appreciate assistance from anyone familiar with this. Happy Holidays!

Printing a window in the OSX finder
This should be such a simple thing to do that I feel stupid for asking, BUT, how the heck do you print a window in the Finder?!?!?! In the OS9.x (and earlier) Finder, you simply choose Print Window... from the file menu. This is no where to be found in OSX (at least v.10.1.5 which I'm currently running). Oddly, I haven't needed to print a window until now. I just want to print out the content of a CD I just burned and keep a hard copy for reference.

Q: best option for wireless printing
I want to set up a printer over my wireless network. My printing requirements are pretty modest, maybe 10 pages per day mostly text. I've got both PC and MAC (mixed marriage) using Lucent Wavelan Silver cards and a Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless hub. The PC is a IBM thinkpad 560x, WIN98 The MAC is a Wallstreet G3 Powerbook I have a number of Canon Printers to choose from. I was looking at the D-Link 713P but just found out the printer server only works with Windows. Any reccomendations?
