Problem

Solutions: A customer called wanting to change the way their printer "redlined". The printer currently printed redline as gray shading but the user wanted it to appear as simple underline. Why don't they just use underline? The user needed to use the automatic removal of redline (Alt-F5, 6, 1) so using plain underline would not work for them. To change the redline method the user entered the PTR program and edited the .ALL file. The user then took the following steps: 1. Type PTR at the DOS prompt 2. Retrieve the desired .ALL file 3. Cursor to the desired printer definition, press ENTER 4. Cursor to ATTRIBUTE METHOD, press ENTER 5. Cursor to UNDERLINE, press ENTER 6. Press ENTER on the method marked with an asterisk 7. Copy down the UNDERLINE ON and UNDERLINE OFF codes 8. Exit back to the Attribute list 9. Press ENTER on REDLINE 10. Press ENTER on the method marked with an asterisk 11. Delete the codes for REDLINE ON and REDLINE OFF and replace them with the codes copied from the UNDERLINE ON and UNDERLINE OFF lines 12. Exit PTR saving the changes These changes have been tested on an IBM 4019 LaserPrinter, an HP LaserJet III, and a Panasonic KX-P4450.
