Printing from Mac problems
Trying to plot from G5 on a network, and for some reason it just comes through as a blank page. I've re-installed the Vectorworks program I'm printing from and printer drivers and it printed once then stopped again. Can anyone suggest anything?

contact vectorworks see if there is anmy issue with network printers. You have reinstalled drivers, then repaired permissions, so outside of a fix like booting from diskwarrior 3.03 and rebuilding directory. I'm thinking its a network problem possibly fixed by os 10.4.4.
Directory however might not be seeing the printer. Does it show as an option on shared printer list under print menu item? It should show as a shared printer and printed from that NOT as an internal printer. You DO have shared printing turned on in system preferences sharing preference item yes? Just checking.....
