You're doing something wrong.  I use JRComm and ClockDJ every day.  No
problem flipping screens.  The only time JRComm "takes over" the machine
is when I'm doing a 14.4 kbps download, and that's just 'cause I've got
JRComm's priority set really high.

When JRComm isn't doing anything at high speed, the rest of the system
is fine.  When it is doing high-speed stuff the whole system bogs down,
but I kinda expect that from a mere 68000 trying to suck bits at 14.4.

  The next release is *completely* multitasking, keyboard driven, reentrant,
residentable and some other stuff.

  The program has turned into almost a complete rewrite, it's taken quite a
long time, but it should be worth the wait.

  If there's a beta tester lurking I'm sure that they can second this...

I was wondering if anyone has successfully gotten DNet to run between

  Use JR-Edit to change the device name and be sure to pay attention to
case.  The author unwisely choose to use mixed case in the filename, so
you have to enter it exactly as it comes out of the archive.  Exec will
not be able to find the device otherwise.

it work in my configuration?

I'm a long-time amiga user, but I'm relatively new to this networking stuff.

Until we get a version of FINAL COPY, I would advise all GPFax/Final Copy
users to AVOID printing.

A fix for GPFax will be available as soon as the problem is determined.
In the event that the problem lies with Final Copy, we will hopefully be
able to include a work around solution.

It isn't the file that is in use, but the PRT: (or PAR: which is down
stream).  What else have you done prior to getting this?  Does it happen
on the first attempt after booting?
AmigaBasic was notorious for not releasing the printer device after use.

Keywords: Hard disk Memory expansion RAM Printers
Date: 23 Jul 92 00:58:23 GMT
Organization: Synopsys Inc.

I own an Amiga 2000 (basic configuration), and would like to purchase the
following hardware upgrades/accessories:

1. Hard disk/drive/controller - my initial feeling, based on price constraints,
   is to go with something in the region of 50M. However, if the differential
   is small, I will purchase 100M+. At this time, I am not inclined to go any
   higher than that.

2. RAM memory expansion - 4MB, expandable whenever I desire.

3. Color + B&W printer.

Upon inquiry at a local store, the following configuration was suggested to
me:

GVP A2000-HC8II/105Q & 8MB RAM Card - $549
    This includes the controller, and also contains a RAM Card expandable to
    8MB. No RAM is supplied, though.

4x1MB SIMMs, 80ns (access time?) - $160
    These fit into the RAM Card above.

Installation of the above - $20

Citizen GSX130, B&W/Color 24-pin Dot Matrix Printer - $289
-plus- Color Kit for Citizen printers - $ 59
-plus- Printer Cable - $7.50

----

I would appreciate any comments from the Amiga community, both in terms of
suggesting alternatives, and in the "reasonableness" of the prices shown. I
do prefer to pay a bit of the premium associated with dealing with a local
store, and do not want to mail-order, but please feel free to present any
compelling arguments in favour of the latter.

Please e-mail or post responses if you think there is general interest. I will
look for responses in this newsgroup, comp.sys.amiga.introduction.

This message means the target object PRT: is in use, or otherwise
unavailable.  For instance, it could mean that an application has
the printer open.

In your case, its more likely your preference settings are incorrect.
Fire up preferences, and check.  Is it properly set to parallel or serial ?
(Make sure the parallel.device, serial.device, and printer.device
are in the devs: directory)

Is the driver set to the one you want ?  (Also make sure the driver
you've selected is present on the disk, in devs:printers )

Since you've just upgraded and added a hard drive, its most likely
some of your settings need to be redone.

The problem is probably not with your files, but with the printer already
alocated for some other print job. Check around whether some other program
had already accessed the printer and hasn't released it. (If you still
use it, AmigaBasic is notorious for this.)
