Problem

Solutions: The steps below can be used to automatically change the TI microLaser (PostScript) printer from HP mode to PostScript mode (changes are made to the printer and PTR).

From the Printer Menu
Set Personal Print 1 = to PS-COM with I/O = to TINET by using the following steps:
1.      Turn the printer off-line
2.      Choose Printer Set-Up and press Select
3.      Choose either Next or Previous until Personal Print 1 appears, then press Select
4.      Choose either Next or Previous until Emulator appears, then press Select
5.      Choose either Next or Previous until PS-Com appears, then press Select
6.      Choose either Next or Previous until TINET appears, then press Select
7.      Press On-Line


Set Personal Print 4 = to HP
*      Do the same steps as above, except for step 3. Instead, choose either Next or Previous until Personal Print 4 appears, then press Select. For step 5, select HP and skip step 6. Perform step 7 to place the printer on-line.

The following steps will change the PostScript driver in PTR:
1.      Enter PTR and retrieve the necessary .ALL file
2.      Enter Initialize and Reset
3.      Type <1B, 10, 21> BEFORE any current initialize variables or strings. This will place the printer in PostScript mode.
4.      Enter Reset at End of Print Job
5.      Place <1B, 10, 24> after [4] (sets printer back to HP mode)
6.      Press ALT-F7 and Save/Replace the .ALL file
7.      Update the printer in WordPerfect (Shift-F7, S, 7)
