#Primera Problems
A friend of mine just recently purchased the Primera printer for use with her
A3000. She hooked it up to the parallel port, installed the printer driver
using the supplied software, and then then tried to print. Nothing. The
printer shows no sign of life. I had her copy a text file to both prt: and
par:, but nothing happened. Interestingly, when I try that at home on my 4000
with no printer attached, the copy to the par: hangs the shell, and when I try
copying to prt: after that it says the device is busy. She's getting neither
error, which makes me think that the Amiga is happily outputting something to
the par which is not being recognized by the Primera. Is there something else
she has to do to enable the printer for the amiga? (The manual for the amiga is
apparently comprised of a readme). My experience with printers is that when I
reboot the machine, the printer reacts somehow. Not so with the Primera. Any
ideas out there?
