Problem

Symptoms: The customer has the Okidata ML 192 (IBM) and cannot get Courier bold 17cpi to print correctly; Bold Courier 10cpi prints instead. Solutions: In high text quality, 17 pitch bolds fine. However, in Draft text quality, the font reverts to 10 pitch. The problem was in the variable which sets text quality. On the 11/06/89 date, the variable was named "qual.86". On the 04/12/90 date, it was named "qual.96". Here are the steps to solve the problem: 1. Enter the PTR Program, retrieve the .ALL file, press Enter on the printer name. 2. Press Alt-F8 for Global Variables, cursor to "qual.86", press Enter, press Ctrl-Enter to get to the edit window. 3. There is an IF(...) statement and an ELSE statement in the variable definition. 1) Change the ELSE statement to ELSEIF(fnt!=1). 2) Move to the ENDIF statement and insert the following in front of it: ELSE SETMETHOD(BOLD,MULTIPLEPASS) SETMETHOD(SHADOW,MULTIPLEPASS) ENDIF ** This problem was corrected on the 03/09/90 release of printer drivers.
