	I just recently installed 512megs of ram in one of my older imacs "333" along with osx with all updates. the computer runs well, much more stable. My problem is in printing, it recognizes the printer in print center but when I go to print on my HP LaserJet 4050 TN series over a ethernet it just reads on the printer "processing job", it will eventually print but ties up all other print jobs from other computers. I don't have the same problem in my Tibook 550 with a gig of ram.and never happened when the imac was on os 9 nor does the 3 other macs running os9 have the problem. regards, sean
