Jon I also have a 512k mac and a Macbottom, and have no problem printing
MacWrite and Word files.  I am using finder 5.3, system 3.2 and imagewriter
driver 2.3.  I also have the new ROMs.  Perhaps there is a problem using
the new system/printer driver with the old ROMs and a Macbottom.  Another
possiblity is that your MacBottom software is faulty.  Have you tried calling
PCPC (toll free number:1-800-MACBUTT)?
