Printer Not Printing With Serial Port |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: When they print in 5.1 the print job will not go out. When they go into 5.0 it prints and then they can print in 5.1. They are using a COM port, and a switch box. Solutions: This problem was fixed today (1/26/90). It will not, of course, be on the 1/19/90 release of 5.1, but will hopefully make the next master of WP.EXE. Some things that the customer can try in the meantime are: 1) Place a MODE command in their AUTOEXEC.BAT - MODE COM1:96,n,8,1,p 2) If that doesn't help by itself, you can set their port in WP to 8 for Other, and then type AUX for the device or file pathname. 3) They can try a COPY 4) The only other thing we know to do is what they are already doing: printing from something else first. |
