Hi again,

I am having another really wierd problem here at work...We have alot of Macs
connected to Vaxes connected to printers through Etherport II boards....We
connect the HP printer to the modem ports on the Macs, so a user can print to a
laser-type printer through network stuff, and then print color using chooser to
choose the HP paintjet.

If I choose a laser-type printer, everything is ok...If I attempt to choose the
HP Paintjet, no problem, until I try to print...MacWrite says 'Unable to print
this document', other pgms say, Printer Error -43, which means 'File not
Found', Finder says 'File/folder missing, make sure printer chosen in chooser'
when you try to print a directory.....

What is wrong?  Anyone have an idea?
