IBM Proprinter XL NLQ Not The Same As 5.0 |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: When using WordPerfect 5.0, the customer said that the print quality was good on his IBM Proprinter in Courier 10 pitch font. In WP 5.1, the user has selected the NLQ 10 pitch font and neither the bold nor the regular text is printing as good as it was in WP 5.0. The NLQ 10 Emphasized font looks a lot better, but it still doesn't look as good as it did in 5.0. Solutions: In 5.0, WordPerfect was using the printer's double strike method to print NLQ. In 5.1, WP uses the printer's print mode for NLQ. If the customer wants to change this, he can edit the printer driver by doing the following: 1. Enter the WP 5.1 PTR program by typing PTR at the DOS prompt and then retrieve the .PRS or .ALL file 2. Press Enter on the Printer Name 3. Press Enter on Initialize and Reset and move the cursor to the Expression Box, and press ALT-F8 to bring them up globally 4. Go to NLQ and change it to: [27]"G" 5. Go to draft and change it to [27]"H" 6. Press F7 to exit and save the file If operators continue to receive calls on this problem, please log it in as an enhancement request. Another customer resolved the problem by going through the following steps: 1. Enter PTR, retrieve the .PRS file and press Enter on the printer name 2. Press Enter on Attribute Methods 3. Press Enter on Bold 4. Change the codes for Bold On to [27]"G" 5. Change the codes for Bold Off to [27]"H" 6. Exit and save the file Customers should understand that this is unsupported and cannot receive support on modified printer drivers. |
