When our Laserwriter gets an error (paper out, etc.)
it sends a message to the computer.  When the problem
is corrected (more paper is put in), the laser printer
sends nothing back to the computer.  So we have no way
of knowing that the problem was solved.

Is there any way for the laser printer to send out a
message "I'm ok now" after a problem has been corrected?
