Has anyone tried to print the Boston II manual to an
ImageWriter II ?? Has anyone gotten it to *work* ?! I installed the
Boston II fonts into my Mac Plus/HD20 system and then tried to print
the documentation. It shows up on the screen alright, but when I
tried to print the ImageWriter II just made some very annoying and
loud noises and printed pure garbage. I then took it over to a
ImageWriter I and it worked fine. I had pretty much forgotton about
it until someone said they had the same problem. They were using a
Mac Plus and a ImageWriter II and got garbage when trying to print
the Boston II manual. What's the problem here? Could the Boston II
fonts be incompatible with the ImageWriter II? Why would that be?
Anyone have any ideas?
