Hi Michael,

-Did you restart after dumping the ICAPrintSpooler?
I found that if I didn't restart after trashing it, it wouldn't work.

-In our tests, we've allowed read and write access in Drive Mapping. You
can actually set this to allow this access by changing it in the Default
Settings so it doesn't ask you that upon login.

-In Printer Setup, local printer type is "Postscript Printer." And unlike
previously where you would choose Apple Laserwriter 360, please Add the
printer driver of your printer.

-Also, you may want to try rebuilding the printer. Again making sure that
it is assigned the correct driver as opposed to having a "generic
printer."

thanks for the comments. I will try to clarify the document instructions.

-Michelle
