Well, this doesn't work for me :-(

I drag installed the SW 1200 printer driver, but I keep getting a "not
enough memory" error message when trying to print. The Finder says I have
about 2.5M free. I tried disabling background printing, I also installed
System 7.5 and the latest versions of the driver and the Desktop Printing
Extension, to no avail. Same error message.

Any ideas ? Should I start looking for a second-hand StyleWriter I ?

Thanks,
