If you have installed the printer resource, it may not be in the System Folder. If necessary,
drag it there.
Check to see if you have two System Folders on the disk. If so, consolidate everything you need in
the more current version and discard the other folder.

The LaserWriter isn’t listed in the Chooser
If you see the LaserWriter icon but no LaserWriter II name in the list of printers, one of the
following situations may be the cause.
The printer has been turned off. Make sure it is plugged in and turned on, and wait for the test
print.
The mode switches are not set correctly.
There’s a problem in the LocalTalk cable system somewhere between your computer and the
LaserWriter II you want to use.
Check to make sure that all the cables are properly connected.
If you still can’t resolve the problem, the printer’s electronics or the LocalTalk connector
boxes may not be functioning properly. Call your authorized Apple dealer.

The LaserWriter II won’t print a test page
Unless you change the PostScript parameters, the LaserWriter II will print a test page every
time you turn it on. If it doesn’t, check the status lights and take the requisite steps.
If the Ready/In Use light is off, the printer is disconnected or switched off, or an error
condition exists. Check the power cord, the cover, and the on/off switch.
If the Paper Out light is red, the printer is out of paper or the paper tray is not in place. Refill
and replace the paper tray.
If the Paper Jam light is red, see "Correcting Paper Jams" later in this chapter.
If the red Paper Jam light is flashing, the printer requires service. See your authorized Apple
dealer.

The test page is blank
Check the toner cartridge. If the Low Toner Level light is on, you may be completely out of toner
powder, or the powder may simply need redistribution. If you have just changed the cartridge,
check to make sure that you have removed the sealing tape.
