MAGNet,
Just as I mailed off the previous message (below), I found some
information on the Belkin site that suggested disabling the "USB
Device Extension" when using Mac OS 9. I tried that and now I can
indeed print.
HOWEVER, upon restart there was a message, as follows:
"Drivers needed for the USB device 'Apple Extended USB Keyboard' are
not available. Would you like to look for these drivers on the
internet?"
Does this indicate that I might run into some loss of functionality
with my keyboard if the driver extension is disabled? Obviously the
keyboard is working in a standard manner as I type this, but is there
something that will not work off the keyboard that isn't immediately
obvious?
Thanks again, and sorry for posting the earlier message before I
fully checked out the Belkin website.
John
