The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The Apple LaserWriter IINTX is similar to the LaserWriter IINT. You can add up to 12M of RAM and a hard disk to the LaserWriter IINTX. In addition to a Diablo emulation mode, the LaserWriter IINTX has an HP LaserJet Plus emulation mode.

The interface for this printer is controlled by dip switches one and two:

                        Switch 1            Switch 2
                         Up             Up            LocalTalk (serial port disabled)
                         Down             Up            Serial ports (RS-232 and RS-422) 1200 baud
                         Up             Down            Serial ports (RS-232 and RS-422) 9600 baud
                         Down             Down            RS-232 serial port 9600 baud; RS-422 serial port 0 baud

Dip switches three through six are used for non-LocalTalk configurations only. The emulation mode is set by dip switches three and four:

                        Switch 3            Switch 4
                         Up             Up            PostScript Batch
                         Down             Up            Diablo 630
                         Down             Down            HP LaserJet
                         Up             Down            PostScript Interactive

For WordPerfect the printer should be set to PostScript Batch.

The handshake is set by dip switches five and six:

                        Switch 5            Switch 6
                         Down             Down            XON/XOFF
                         Up             Up            XON/XOFF
                         Down             Up            ETX/ACK
                         Up             Down            DSR/DTR

WP will use either XON/XOFF or DSR/DTR. The default serial information is N, 8, 1. Similar to the LaserWriter IINT, the handshake, baud rate, parity, stop bits, and character length can be reset by PostScript commands. Refer the customer to "Connecting to and Printing with an MS-DOS Computer" in Appendix C of the LaserWriter IINTX manual for details.
