Hello,

I am having issues printing with my Apple laserwriter 16/600 ps printer. It prints documents out fine but can't handle pictures anymore. I used to be able to send it some pretty good sized images, it would just take a while to print, but now it's acting up and won't print anything at all that resembles a picture unless its really small.
It is connected by a usb to my computer via a usb hub. The only thing I've changed recently is moved my desk. I need it for my printmaking class and would really appreciate it if someone could explain to me how this old printer works memory wise, if there are any tricks to getting it to print my photos. It gives a message in the printer dialog box that says something like "no bounding box" and shoots out prints with 1 line of garbled text and won't stop unless I unplug it. I'm using a generic postscript driver that I think I found on the internet for my mac mini. It was the same driver that I used when it was printing photos. Thanks.
