dialogue box has the Universal Serial Bus entry greyed out, so he
is naturally unable to select it. He has an Epson Stylus Color
680 printer, and a Belkin USB-parallel interface (sorry, I can't
remember the model number). When I spoke to him yesterday, the
printer was connected via the Belkin interface and /not/ directly.
The Belkin interface is seen by !USBInfo as a printer.
the reason will be that there were various obey files in predesk (or
tasks) for the early printing efforts that are not completely removed
when moving to 513.
best bet is to get a new current disc image and add back ONLY what is
shown to be needed

So, what else is necessary to activate the USB connection method?
