Tried that. I even installed the latest version of the LaserWriter 8
software I could find, 8.6.1. I also found out (from a couple of
minutes ago) that it seems to work semi randomly throughout all
programs. I just tried to print a couple of webpages just a few
minutes ago. I had three print jobs, and only one came out (all from
IE 5).
