WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The customer has an NEC Silentwriter LC-890 connected directly to LPT1. He also has the LaserMaster 1000 which is using the controller card. His port in WP for this printer also says LPT1. He enters WP and prints using the NEC just fine. Then he goes to Shift-F7, S, and selects the LaserMaster 1000 (1000 dpi) and prints fine. However, when he selects the NEC again and tries to print, the print job leaves Control Printer, but nothing ever prints out. He can exit WP, but then his computer locks up. Sometimes he gets a C:> and sometimes he doesn't, but he must always reboot. It seems that if he switches from the NEC to the LM and prints, everything goes fine. But, if he has the LM selected and then switches to the NEC, the print job disappears and his computer locks. Solutions: This will be fixed on the next program release following 8/20/90.
