Problems with Stylewriter II

I have been having problems with printing on my Mac 5200 using a
Stylewriter II. When I try to print a document, I will get a message
saying there is a printing problem and to go to Print Monitor. When I go
to Print Monitor there is nothing in the Print Monitor box and then I get
a message saying there is an error in the Stylewriter printer and to check
connections. Turning the printer off and then on sometimes helps but
sometimes it doesn't.

I have been using Foolproof as a desktop protection and have found that
there is a conflict with Foolproof Init and the chooser. Foolproof is
supposed to correct this problem in a later version.

At times I will also get an empty box with a <P when trying to print using
the Command P command. My computer locks up and I have to turn it
completely off and reboot. My service technician says he has never seen
this before. I will also get a <E when I try to eject the disk using the
Command E command.

I would appreciate any suggestions.
