I am one of those who has/had a perfectly ordinary and acceptable spooler for the Mac and Imagewriter, it is/was put out by the same people who did SuperLaser Spool. The problem is, when you go to multifinder, you lose that capability. I find this rather incongrous, since one would think that with multifinder it should be trivial to make a program to do the job. Indeed, multifinder comes with something that does the job for laserwriters. It is a full sweep for Apple's kindness in giving us something "free"....they effectively knock the feet out from under the vendor of Superlaserspool, yet don't go far enough to solve the problem entirely. At the A32 club meeting in November, a large number of people were similarly disgruntled at having spooling taken away by multifinder. The multifinder is handy enough that my choice is to do without spooling for a few more weeks in hopes that some enterprising soul will remedy the situation. I hope to read about it here. The vendor is SuperMac. My local sources tell me they are working on an upgrade for the Imagewriter Spooler. I actually hope they also fix their SuperLaser Spooler, since it seems to have a little more than the Apple freebie.
