WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: WordPerfect is prompting the customer twice to insert paper on the IBM Quietwriter I printer. The user is prompted for a manually fed form, then the user is prompted a second time when he prints a continuous form. Solutions: The customer wanted WordPerfect to prompt for each manually fed form, but did not want WP to prompt for a Continuous 8.5" x 11" form when finished printing the manual forms. The reason WP prompted the user two times, once for the manual form and once for a continuous form was because the printer feeds manual and continuous forms in the same location. There is a place in the printer driver that tells WP that this is the way the printer is set up. By unmarking this flag, the customer eliminated the prompt. This is done by following these steps: 1. Enter the PTR Program, retrieve the .ALL printer file, and press Enter on the printer name 2. Press Enter on Miscellaneous Questions 3. Cursor to Manual Feed and Continuous Forms Load in Same Place, and press Backspace to remove the asterisk 4. Exit the PTR Program and save the modified .ALL file 5. Update the .PRS file in WP by pressing Shift-F7 (Print), S (Select Printer), 7 (Update)
