The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer is printing tables from WordPerfect 5.1 to the Canon BJ-330 printer. The final print job is correct, but the method the printer uses seems odd. Instead of printing out a complete line in one movement, the printer prints one-third of the horizontal line, returns to the left, moves to the right and prints the next third, returns again to the left, then returns to the right and prints the final third. The customer is concerned because it is taking twenty-one printhead moves to print a 3-column, 1-row table. Why does the printer work this way? Solutions: Because this printer has a horizontal misalignment problem when printing graphics, WordPerfect forces the printer to reposition whenever graphic information is sent to the printer. When WordPerfect prints a table, it will create the lines graphically, and the printer will reposition quite often.
