If you are <looking for LaserWriter 6.0 (which supports PostScript color output <devices and grayscale printing to black and white PostScript output <devices, among a number of improvements), obtain the disk called <Apple Color Disk. This disk contains 32-bit Color Quickdraw (NOT <required for color printing) and LaserWriter/LaserPrep 6.0. Do all Apple Dealers have this disk? If it was sent out to them, does anyone know when? I tried to get the driver this weekend. The dealer knew nothing about it. Is there anything else I could say to jog their memory? Or maybe not everyone got it? I've been experimenting with grayscale images digitized by MacVision. I got the best prints from PageMaker, but I'd rather use Word. I understand that this driver is what stands between the ugly prints I got and something more like those from PageMaker. Is there any chance that this driver would improve the prints I got from Digital Darkroom and MacVision? Shirley Kehr
