	   I normally use New Baskerville fonts for my documents.
   BUT when I tried to print a document with this font on a
   LaserWriter II, a dialog popped up with the message:
   "Error : invalidprinter : OffendingCommand: fontdownload".
   Does this mean I can't use the font or is there a way
   around this problem?  (Will I need to sacrifice a hard drive
   just to use four fonts?) The laserwriter font utility also
   fails to download to this printer.

   System software:
         system 4.2
         finder 6.0
         laserwriter 5.2
         laser prep (supplied with laserwriter resource above)
         laserwriter font util 1.0

   PS: I tried asking a couple of the area apple dealers, but 
	     they didn't have a clue as to what's wrong.
