IBM Proprinter X24E Not Printing High Quality |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: Using the 12/31/90 and 11/09/90 .ALL files, the customer's IBM Proprinter X24E would not print high quality. It only passed the print head over the line one time. This happened on all of her fonts. All switches were in the correct positions. Other programs print high quality correctly. Solutions: because this is a 24-pin printer it has the ability to do single-pass high quality. However, the customer did not like how dark this was printing. Adding a line in the font select string allowed this printer to print a double strike. The steps to do this are documented below: 1. Enter PTR Program and retrieve the .PRS file 2. Press Enter on the printer 3. Move to fonts and press Enter 4. Press Enter on any font 5. Press the right arrow to move to the expression box 6. Press ALT-F8 to move to string variables 7. Move to Cour 10 and press Ctrl-Enter, then move to the line that begins if(quality==2). . . and add [27]"G" 8. Repeat this step for the strings COUR12 and COUR17* 9. Move to draft10, and at the end of the current string add [27]"H" 10. Repeat step 10 for draft12 and draft17 11. Exit and save. NOTE: There are variable strings for COUR.10, COUR.12, and COUR.17. These are not the correct strings to edit. This will also alter the way that the printer does bold. The customer should be aware of this. |
