Any suggestions... i have the iBook on the Internet using our network (wireless and wired), but i cant seem to get the damn thing to print.

It uses OSX

Also, the laptop is set to load both OSX and OS9 i guess, how can i stop it from loading OS9?

Thanks!!

I assume you mean the laptop starts Classic when it boots into MacOS X. To stop Classic from starting on bootup go to the Classic control panel in the System Preferences and unclick the box to start Classic on boot-up or whatever the preference is called.

Note that if you click on a MacOS 9 app or file that can only be opened by a MacOS 9 app, it will start Classic.
