:   Here's another (perhaps more common) reason for needing to switch from
:ImageWriter to LaserWriter after the ImageWriter has been used, without
:having to reboot.

:   A lot of people use Microsoft Word to write a document for printing on a
:LaserWriter, although the computer they're working on has only an ImageWriter.
:If you use the Chooser to select LaserWriter, Word will then format your
:document on the screen as it will appear when printed on the LaserWriter.

As far as I can determine, the major difference is the width of the
page.  This is certainly so for MacDraw and other applications that
can print to either device.

The quick/dirty solution to your problem: leave it set to ImageWriter,
and use Tall Adjusted (I know, this is tricky in Word 3+).  The lines
and pages will now be broken at the same place as they would for the
Laserwriter at 100%, and no Choosing is necessary.
