ImageWriter LQ: ROM Upgrade Service Program



I have a small network of approximately 10 Macintosh II systems, all using
EtherTalk Cards with thinnet wiring. The Ethernet network runs connects
through a Kinetics FastPath to a PhoneNET network containing two ImageWriter
LQs with LocalTalk PC Cards.

With the original ImageWriter LQ logic board with the ROM version 00 everything
worked fine. The printer was available on the network from both the Ethernet
side and the PhoneNET side. When the dealer installed a new "Reworked" logic
board with a ROM version 02 was installed in the ImageWriter LQ, the
Macintoshes could access the printer on the PhoneNET side of the network.
However, the printers became invisible on the Ethernet side.

Do you have any suggestions for solving this problem?

There are problems like the one you described that occur as a result of the
ImageWriter LQ ROM Upgrade. To solve the problem, a second service program
will replace the main logic board with a newer version. The part number of the
board is 661-0563. Use the 02 ROMs and driver version 2.0 for the best
results.
