Sorry gang, that's LaserWriter 4.0, not 4.1....

I used MS Word 3.0 today, and found much to my disgust that I have
no access AT ALL to the new features of the LaserWriter driver such
as the larger print area, precision bitmap scaling, and so forth. The
Page Setup box gives the old settings (from 3.1). Where does Microsoft
get off replacing the standard print dialogs with their own?

Isn't the phrase "Consistent User Interface" in their dictionary???

Harrumph.
