I frequently work in the mode: type a business letter, dump a "faster" copy for
my hard copy files, and a 'best' copy for the mail.  I had David's problem
with missing driver several times, but hadn't quite figured out the pattern.
I have written to SuperMac, but wasn't able to give them pointer to making
the problem recur reliably.  I will now pass this on to my contact there, so
we should get some help with this.

I haven't had the problem with draft printing.

By the way, my contact at SuperMac says they try to monitor mod.mac, so it
would be useful if these postings get repeated there (hint, hint).  It would
be even nicer if SuperMac let on where on the net they are hiding so users
could engage in a direct dialoge without waiting for USnail (HINT HINT).
