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

Problem

Symptoms: When someone retrieves another person's file off the network, the other person's printer definition is retrieved correctly, but the port setup is not. They can reset the port and the file prints. Why is the port selection disappearing only when they retrieve someone else's file? The best solution, so far, has been to set "Format For Default Printer" to Yes. Solutions: The program is working as designed. When WordPerfect saves a document, the prefix contains the printer definition, with the exception of the port selection. This is because the device used for printing is station specific. Some machines on the network may not have the same parallel and or serial ports available.
