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

Problem

Symptoms: The Silver Reed EXP 550 is printing a B with the number six over the top in the left hand corner of the page. Also, there is no left margin and offsets do not seem to work. Tabs and indents are not recognized. This printer prints fine at DOS as well as using the Standard Printer in WordPerfect 5.1. Solutions: We cannot duplicate this using the 1/5/90 dates. Verify that all six dips are off (if it is a serial model, it will have 1 bank of 8 besides the bank of 6). Set the bank of 8 to 1,3,4 off; 2,5-8 on and set the serial settings in WP to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, not parity, xonxoff-yes. If it is set up properly please try the following:

1.      Type PTR at the proper DOS prompt and retrieve the *.PRS file.
2.      Press Enter on the Printer Name.
3.      Go to Initialize and Reset and press Enter.
4.      Delete the "Reset Advance At End of Page" and "Set Page Length" codes and change "Printer Auto Page Advance" from yes to no. This will get rid of the "B" at the top of the page. The horizontal positioning will work if the DIPS are set correctly.
