I finally decided on the Lexmark E320 laser printer... and it works great in Mac OS X... i didn't even need to install any drivers... it was recognized and it printed perfectly.

But I can't get it to print in Classic mode. So I restarted in Mac OS 9.2.2 and I installed the drivers. But I can't get it to work. Well I guess what it really did was install a PPD and I am supposed to use the LaserWriter 8 driver.

I went to chooser, picked LaserWriter, but when I go to print I get an error mesage that reads:

"no desktop printer exsists for this spool file"

Is there supposed to be a lexmark icon somewhere in the chooser?

Any help would be great...

I used Word a lot, but right now I only have Word for Mac OS 9. So if I can't print in Classic, it would really suck.

Thanks for any help.

I read something that said use Adobe's Print Drivers...

I downloaded the print driver... selected in the Chooser... but when I go to print... I can't change the "destination" to printer... it is stuck on file...

So I'm still back to point one. How do I print in 9?
