Print - Device Conflict Errors When Using MS |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: A customer ran WordPerfect 5.1 in a Microsoft Windows 3.0 window. They printed to a remote printer over a Novell network using a CAPTURE command. The remote printer was attached to a machine that is being used as a workstation, also running MS Windows. When running under this setup, the second machine should have all printers deselected in MS Windows. If not, the user will receive a device conflict error. Following the error, the message "WordPerfect Is Trying To Use A Port That Windows Has Control Of, Do You Want To Return Control To Windows Or WP Y/N?" will appear. This message will exit the user out of MS Windows, or not allow printing. Deselecting the printers in MS Windows, at the remote print server, is a work around, but allows WordPerfect run through Novell to bypass MS Windows. |
