Printing To Network Printer Via Modem Causes |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is running WP on a local drive but attaching to a Novell 3.11 network through a MicroTest LAN modem. When the customer sends a document to an HP LaserJet IIISi over the network (through the modem), goes back to the document screen, and begins typing, the text appears on the screen very slowly. If the customer prints to a local printer or to the network without using the modem, the screen reaction time is much quicker. The customer works around the problem by printing the document to a file and using NPRINT to send this file to the printer over the modem. Solutions: Printing to a network printer through a modem is going to cause a slow-down in text display while the print job is being downloaded to the printer. WP will send some information, wait for the acknowledgement that it was received, and then send some more. That is why it takes longer to send a document over a modem. Because the station's memory resources are being used so intensively, the text display will be slow. Status: Sent to Development ***|sent to dev|*** Press Enter on link token. |
