problem is likely in the application and the ROM upgrade will
not help.
If possible, try printing the problem file to a printer with version
2.0 ROMs. If there is no improvement, then the problem is

• NetWare port number not set properly
When setting the NetWare port number through the Apple
Printer Utility, the number did not stick.
• Changing AppleTalk type fails
Changing the AppleTalk “type” on version 1.0 ROMs fails

Creating a one-byte long PostScript filename on a printer’s hard
disk caused an I/O error. (Unlikely to affect normal user).
• Configuration switch and image data
This issue only affects printing from PC computers using the
parallel port. Once the printer’s configuration switch was used,
