Problem

Symptoms: The customer has the Xerox 4045 printer and is trying to print the $ (dollar sign) in WP5.1. When he types a line of the $ symbols using either the Xerox 4045 or the Xerox 4045 additional or the standard printer definitions he gets a character that resembles a sun burst. He is also hooked up to a Devoke Print Contender (sharing device). Solutions: We tried this but ours works fine. You might want to check his switch settings. He might also want to try to set the printer up without the Devoke Print Contender. He could also go into the character map in the PTR program and make changes there so it works on his printer (such as deleting the code that is there [164] and replacing it with "$"): 1. Type PTR at a DOS prompt 2. Press Shift-F10 to retrieve the .ALL file, or .PRS file 3. Highlight the printer and Enter 4. Highlight Fonts and enter 5. Highlight the correct font and enter 6. Highlight Character Maps and enter twice 7. Find the dollar sign and for the value in the expression box type "$" 8. Exit and save file--Update printer file in WP if ALL file was used
