my choir director's using an epson printer with her outdated graphite iMac running OS 9.1
However, when she tried to print, the comp would say "LaserWriter" instead of the Epson printer and when you try to print something in AppleWorks it says some weird and cryptic message i don't remember about the printer not existing.
When i took a look at the system profiles, the computer recognized the Epson printer on the USB port but kept saying that the printer was the LaserWriter.
I thought perhaps i could find a fix online, however none of the computers nearby were connected to the network or to the internet. Cell phone reception in her room was even worse so I couldn't use my mac.
To print the documents we transferred the documents from one iMac to my AluBook which had no problem with the printer but we can't use this temporary fix forever.
Anyone know what I can do to fix the problem?
