TOPIC
I have a lab with StyleWriter 2400's and StyleWriter 2500's and several different CPU's. Some are running Mac OS 7.6 or later and some are running System 7.5.5 or earlier. I am trying to share the StyleWriters so that all of the computers can print to them. Whenever I try to print from one of the computers running System 7.5.5 or earlier, I get an error message that the printer drivers are not the same version and the job does not print.
DISCUSSION To use printer sharing, the printer driver on the host machine and the client machine must be the exact same version. In Mac OS 7.6 and later, the Color StyleWriter 2500 driver version was changed to 2.2.1. On System 7.5.5 and earlier, the version number is 2.2. This is what causes the error message. Workarounds
2. Custom install the StyleWriter Family software from the latest version of system software in the lab. |
