Almost.  I followed this link back to the .legacy area and found the 
printers, but I keep getting a page not found message for both the 
stylewriter and forward, the same for my 5300.  Also, this appears to be 
the specification area--I was hoping for the user's manual.  :)

I VERY much appreciate all the help everyone's given on this!

You did not look at the correct page.  The User Guide for your PowerBook 5300 is right 
here:

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50021

With respect to the StyleWriters, I could only find the User Guide for StyleWriter 
1200.  I have no idea how different it is from your StyleWriter II.

Howard,
   I waa able to download a copy of the 5300 manual, but the furtherest 
back I could get on the StyleWriter models was the 1200, I can e-mail 
them to you if you like.

Thanks, but I was able to get the 5300 with the link Fabian sent.  I've 
got a few leads on the Stylewriter II manual so I'm in hunt mode for 
those.  :)

(It might have been something with the DSL setup my employer uses as to 
why the 1st link wouldn't work--I'm a firm believer in Computer Voodoo.  
Started out with SCSI voodoo on my Apple //e and it's progressed from 
there.  :)

I see that HK got the manual he needed, however for others who may wish 
to find similar items in the future . . .

http://www.info.apple.com/support/manuals.html and search for (for 
example :-) stylewriter and up pops such pages as this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50048

I don't see the SW2 UG listed on that page but the SW1200 is 
near-as-dammit the same thing.

hth,

Re: 520 / 540 networking enigma

2004-07-19 Thread gf sciacca
  I first thought the Ethernet port on the 520 would be bust, but local
  connectivity seems to indicate otherwise. Am I missing anything
  obvious???
  How to proceed to troubleshoot this one??

 If you're using static IP addresses it has to either be corrupted
 TCP/IP prefs on the failing machine *or* the gateway address and/or the
 network mask are set wrong. ISTR that they have to be set manually in
 8.1; they won't get the addresses from the DHCP server.

 I'd wager on the latter, I'd bet, if you're using static addresses. If
 it's the latter, just trash the prefs file and set it up again. I've
 had that happen on occasion.

I've tried over and over, checked the manual settings, trashed the TCP/IP
prefs, done the manual settings again, I've also tried to trash TCP/IP
prefs and the MacTCP DNR pane and replace them with copies from another
machine that connects just fine. No success. I add a recap of the symptoms
in the hope that someone might spot some potential cause. I'm back
thinking of a possible hardware fault.

- WLAN set with static IP address for each machine
- 520 with OS 8.1 connects fine to other machines in the WLAN
- 520 won't connect to remote hosts and websites (can't resolve names,
made me think that it was problem of communication with the router which
is also set as Name Server)
- tried also to connect with NiftyTelnet SSH to a remote host using the
remote host IP address and it won't connect either. Same trying to load
websites using their IP address rather tnah the URL.
- other similar machines with identical settings connect ok.

anything else to try short of replacing the mobo?

cheers, gianfranco

Re: 520 / 540 networking enigma

2004-07-19 Thread gf sciacca
One additional detail:

when trying to connect to a remote host or website using their TCP/IP
address (rather than the hostname or url), it keeps trying for a while,
then reports that the connection was refused by the remote host.
If using the hostname or url, it says that cannot find a host with that
name, no DNS entry, etc.

cheers, gianfranco

Re: 5300 memory allocation- VM or RamDoubler 2?

2004-07-19 Thread KG
 Secondly, would it be better to use RamDoubler2 to set the memory
 allocation to 48mb, or better to set the Virtual Memory Control Panel
 to 48 mb?

I don't have any experience with RAMDoubler2, but I do have RD9 installed on
a 5300c/100 with 40 MB of RAM and OS 8.1, and I have it set to double the
RAM to 80 MB. It works very well, much better than using VM.
