HP LaserJet III Blank Page With Dot Ejects Be |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The user installed the additional printer driver for the HP LaserJet III, and it ejects a blank page with a small dot at about 1" down and 1" inch from the left on a blank page before printing the document. This occurs every time she attempts to print a document. When she uses the regular printer driver, the extra page is not ejected and the document prints fine. Solutions: In the 06/22/90 printer release there is a label command that prints a period at position 3000X (this was a work around for an HP Outlining problem). This is at an X position of 10". This would print off the page if the customer had the printer set in portrait orientation, and this is what it is supposed to do. However, in landscape orientation the X position is rotated 90 degrees, making 10" too small to print this character off the page. The outcome is the problem your customer has described. The customer was able to fix the problem by following these steps: 1. Retrieve the .ALL file into the PTR program, and select the printer 2. Select Initialize and Reset 3. Cursor to Initialize at Start of Print Job 4. Press Ctrl-Enter to move the codes to the lower box 5. About the fifth line down you will see [27]"*p3000X" 6. Change that expression to [27]"*p4500X" 7. Exit, save, and replace 8. Update the driver in WordPerfect (Shift-F7, S, 7) This X position value will print the dot off the page even if the user is printing legal landscape. Look for this change in a Printer Software Change Notice after 10/90. These changes will affect the HP LaserJet III and HP LaserJet III (Additional) drivers. |
