George and Bill, In the trouble.txt file in your A-Time disk i think there is a note that talks about some cables that were sold from dealers that connect the reset pin of the Amiga to a pin OTHER than the reset (sometimes called I-Prime) of your printer. As you can understand, the reset pin of the Amiga is there to be hooked to the reset pin of your printer and nowhere else. The reset pin is an output pin from the amiga and SHOULD NOT be connected to a high or a low output signal from your printer, which sometimes happens with wrong cables. (It should be connected at the reset line which is a input line). So check your cable that it connects pin 25 of your Amiga connector to the correct pin of your printer (thats the reset pin). A-Time has no problems if you use the correct cable. I just wish I can get my hands to some of the dealers that do such a de-service to their customers. I am very happy with my A-Time and never had any problems with it. I've had it for about 10 months now. Bill.
