Problem

Symptoms: The printer does not recognize a dual hard return ([HRt][HRt]) inserted into the document in any location. In other words, if you type a phrase once, press Enter twice so as to double space, the output is always single spaced. The internal font cartridge says 8850. Solutions: This problem cannot be duplicated in-house. However, the following information is a work around the user might try: 1. Enter the PTR program and retrieve the .PRS file. Highlight the printer name and press Enter. 2. Go to Vertical Motion and press Enter twice. Change the expression for Maximum Units and change it to 8. 3. Press Alt-F7 to exit the PTR program, saving the changes made to the .ALL file as you do so. This will not allow WP to set a line feed higher than 1/6 before sending a line feed. If this solves the problem, the user would probably also want to change this in the .ALL printer file. Some customers using a dual bin sheet feeder with the 8850 have corrected the spacing problem by selecting the NEC Spinwriter 8850 (4523) sheet feeder definition, and specifying the correct bins in the form. *This information is given as a troubleshooting option.
