LaserWriter 8.4.x: Type 15 Errors With Desktop Printing (1/97)

When I try to print, I get Type 15 errors when I have Desktop Printing on. I am using the LaserWriter 8.4.x printer drivers.
I get error type 15's and/or multiple printer icons when printing with LaserWriter 8.4.x with Desk top Printing turned on.

When you remove or disable the AppleScript and Finder Scripting extension, when Desktop Printing is on, you will either get Type 15 errors, or multiple Desktop Printer icons.

The AppleScript and Finder Scripting extension are used by the LaserWriter 8.4.x and desktop printing software.
