Panasonic KX-P1524 - Printhead Tearing First

DocumentID: 644830
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 8:19:01 PM

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

Problem

Symptoms: The Panasonic KX-P1524 (with sheet feeder) printhead moves over to the extreme left before printing and then the first page is caught by the printhead and torn. After the first page is printed the printhead centers and works fine. It's just the first page that is a problem. (Folio Memo P51_887 notes the same problem). Currently the user has moved the paper to the extreme left and used a text adjustment to compensate for the adjustment. Solutions: To prevent the printhead from performing a carriage return on the first line of the page perform the following changes to the *.PRS file: 1. At the DOS level within the WordPerfect directory, type PTR and press Enter. Press Shift-F10 (Retrieve) and type in the name of the printer's .PRS file. 2. Press Enter on the printer name. Highlight Horizontal Motion and press Enter. 3. Press enter on Relative Horizontal Spacing, highlight "Perform Carriage Return", and press the right arrow key to get to Expression box. 4. Press Control-Enter to edit the expression string. Replace the existing [13]rr:=0 with: IF(YPOS != 0) [13]rr:=0 ENDIF 5. Exit the PTR Program and save the file.
