LaserWriter IIg: PostScript Code For Changing Zones (6/94)


I am aware of the problem with the LaserWriter IIg and zone problem that was
resolved by a ROM upgrade. Is there a way to fix this problem using PostScript code instead of replacing the ROM?

The following PostScript code changes the zone the LaserWriter IIg is located in.

For 1.0 ROMs:

currentfile statusdict begin product (LaserWriter IIg) eq
version (2010.113) eq and end not
{save exch 291 string readstring pop pop restore} if
/ASCIIHexDecode filter /SystemPatch statusdict /emulate get exec

serverdict begin 0 exitserver
(%EtherTalk%) <</EtherTalkZone (YourZoneGoesHere)>> setdevparams


For 2.0 ROMs:

serverdict begin 0 exitserver
(%EtherTalk%) <</EtherTalkZone (YourZoneGoesHere)>> setdevparams


An alternative to sending the printer one of the above PostScript programs is
to use the LaserWriter Utility, version 7.3 or later.
