WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: A customer is using the Brother HR-40 with the Cut Sheet Feeder attachment, and would like the printer to automatically load the first sheet and not load a sheet after the print job. Solutions: This can be accomplished by making the following changes in the printer driver:
1.      Run the PTR program and retrieve WPDW1.ALL (WPRINT2.ALL if using WP 5.0).
2.      Press Shift-F8 to switch to SheetFeeders.
3.      Press 1 to Add.
4.      Highlight the Brother Single/Dual/Envelope and press Enter; type Brother CSF for the name, then press Enter again.
5.      Highlight Printer Strings and press Enter.
6.      Change the expression on Insert form from [27,25]ASCII(Bin) to [12].
7.      Save the changes to WPWD1.ALL (WPRINT2.ALL) and exit the PTR program.
8.      Run WP.
9.      Press Shift-F7,S and highlight the Brother HR-40 (Brother HR-15XL/2-/35/40 if using WP 5.0) and press 7 to update the .PRS file.
10.      Press F7, to exit the Printer Helps and Hints screen.
11.      Choose the Brother CSF Sheetfeeder, and set the location for Standard 8.5" x 11" to BIN1.

In order for this to work, the dip switches on SW2 need to be set with 1-6 on and 7-8 off.

How/Why:
The Cut Sheet Feeder needs commands from the software in order to pull the first sheet in and not pull a page in after the print job. These commands are entered into a new sheetfeeder definition using the steps above. If these commands are not used, customers should load the first sheet into the printer before printing. The printer will also load a sheet of paper into the printer after the print job.
