Problem

Solutions: A known problem with the Tandy 1000 computer in WordPerfect 5.0 appears to be showing up in WordPerfect 5.1. The problem is that the computer sends a line feed every time a carriage return is sent. This conflicts with printer drivers which send both a line feed and a carriage return for vertical motion ([10,13] in PTR). One printer (according to at least one user) where this is happening is the NEC Pinwriter P2200. Instructions for fixing the problem follow. More information on other printers is in Memo ID WP50_7350 (Panasonic KX-P1592) and WP50_013 (Epson Printers such as the Epson LQ-510 and Epson LQ-500). To change the driver for the NEC Pinwriter P2200 or the Epson printers: 1. Enter the PTR program and retrieve the .ALL or .PRS file. Highlight the printer name and press Enter. 2. Select the option for Vertical Motion and press Enter twice. Cursor to Perform Line Feed and press Enter to move to the expression. 3. Delete the 13 and the preceding comma, changing the expression from [10,13] to [10]. 4. Press Alt-F7 to exit the PTR program, saving the edited file as you do so. If these changes are made to the .ALL file, update the .PRS file in WordPerfect (Shift-F7, S, 7).
