Have you selected the correct PPD file? You can do this by selecting
LaserWriter 8 from the Chooser and then clicking on the Setup button. There
is also a "Select PPD" option in the Pagemaker Additions.
Be warned... LaserWriter NTs are slow. If you are using heavy graphics, it
could take awhile for them to be transmitted. What does the PrintMonitor
say?
Happy printing,
