After printing on my ImageWriter in certain applications, I'm not
able to turn on AppleTalk, either by selecting it directly or by
selecting the LaserWriter driver.  A box comes up informing me
that the Printer port is in use, even if printing finished okay and
I've already quit the application.  The only way to turn on the
LaserWriter driver is to reboot first.  There's never any
problem with going from LW to IW, even after printing (or at
least saving a PostScript file).

This happens after printing in:
	Word 3.01
	MacWrite 4.6
	MacDraw 9997B

This does NOT happen after printing in:
	TeachText 1.0
	MacPaint 1.5
	HyperCard 1.01
(i.e., I CAN make AppleTalk active after printing on the IW.)

The rest of the configuration is:
	MacPlus, 1 meg		Original ImageWriter
	System 4.1		Finder 5.5
	Chooser 3.1		ImageWriter driver 2.6
	LaserWriter driver 4.0

Has anyone else seen this?  What can be done to cure it?

Thanks,
