SUMMARY
The Hewlett-Packard Chooser document &quot;LaserJet IIP,&quot; which is supplied with the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet IIP, is not compatible with Microsoft QuickBasic versions 1.0, 1.0a, and 1.0b for Apple Macintosh.

When printing from Microsoft QuickBasic (for Apple Macintosh) to a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet IIP, a &quot;System error ID = 03&quot; will occur if the Chooser document supplied by Hewlett-Packard is used. This error will occur in either a program using LPRINT or PRINT# commands, or when printing a program listing using Print from QuickBasic's File menu.

To work around this problem, use the standard Apple LaserWriter Chooser document instead of the LaserJet IIP Chooser document when printing from QuickBasic.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in QuickBasic versions 1.0, 1.0a, and 1.0b for Apple Macintosh computers running on System 6.0.4, 6.0.5, and 6.0.7, and associated Finder versions 6.1.4, 6.1.5, and 6.1.7. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
