What is the LaserWriter 8 version 8.3.4?

PowerPC-based computers may have difficulty printing to some third
party network printers or print spoolers in certain network
configurations. When printing to one of these devices, your computer
may freeze or never complete printing, and you may need to restart
your computer or cancel the printing job. LaserWriter 8 version 8.3.4
fixes this problem. Note: If you have already installed LaserWriter 8
version 8.4 you do not need version 8.3.4.

In addition to installing LaserWriter 8 version 8.3.4, you should make
sure that your computerÕs system software is version 7.5.3 or later.
For information on obtaining system software version 7.5.3, refer to
Apple ComputerÕs America Online or Internet sites, or see the custom
support information that came with your computer to call Apple
directly. 
To install this LaserWriter version 8.3.4 follow these steps:

1. Locate the System Folder on the computerÕs hard disk. DonÕt open
the System Folder.

2. Drag the file named ÒLaserWriter 8Ó to the System Folder.

3. A message appears asking if you want the LaserWriter 8 extension to
be put into the Extensions folder. Click OK. If a second message
appears stating that LaserWriter 8 already exists and asks you if you
would like to replace it, click OK.

4. Open the Special menu and choose Restart.


IMPORTANT

If the second message does not appear, then you do not currently have
LaserWriter 8 and the associated files installed. Do the following:

1. Refer to the printed manual that came with your computer, and
follow the instructions for doing a custom installation.

2. In the Custom Install dialog box youÕll see a list of items that
can be installed. Click the arrow to the left of the ÒPrintingÓ check
box to reveal the list of printers.

3. Click to put an X in the ÒLaserWriter 8Ó checkbox.

version already installed, click Newer.
