The IIsi doesn't run on anything but 6.0.7 or 7.0 which has been a
bit flakey on some of the EE machines around here.  Say, check your
copy of printmonitor, have you tried printing without it?  Perhaps
you are running with a flakey telnet...  I've heard of stuff affecting
printings that I wouldn't of suspected before...  But with the telnet
fixes we seem to be back in business.
We haven't upgraded in Space past 6.0.5 and I don't suspect we will
until the fall...  "Patience is a virtue"  Read that somewhere else...

Isn't the printer driver the only thing you have to replace?  There is
a 7.0 compatible 6.0.7driver that should keep lasers from rebooting...
Seems strange to me to be mixing 6.0.7 and 7.0 stuff on the same machine...
