HP LaserJet IIIP Does Not Support HP-GL/2 |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: In the Help screen for Edit Printer Setup (Shift+F7, Select, Edit, F1), both the HP LaserJet 4 and the HP LaserJet IIIP printers are listed as supporting HP-GL/2 vector graphics mode. The HP LaserJet IIIP printer drivers do not currently support HP-GL/2. Solutions: Customers can use the PTR program to modify their existing HP IIIP printer driver definition (normally called HP3P.PRS) to support HP-GL/2. Following are the steps to modify the .PRS file: 1. Load the HP IIIP printer definition (HP3P.PRS) in PTR. 2. Select Edit (1), Graphics (6), Miscellaneous (M). 3. Select Vector Graphics (7) and change the Type (1) to HP IIIP. 4. If you want the printer to default to using HP-GL/2 mode, mark the Default to US Printer Vector Graphics option. 5. Exit back to the Printers dialog (F7, F7, F7). 6. Rename the printer (if desired). For example, the name could be changed to "HP LaserJet IIIP - HP-GL/2". 7. Save the file with a new name (e.g., HP3P-V.PRS). The new .PRS file must have a different name than the original .PRS file. 8. Exit the PTR program and start WordPerfect. 9. Go into Select Printer (Shft+F7, S). 10. Go into List *.PRS (8) and highlight and select the new HP IIIP .PRS file. 11. Exit the Printer Helps and Hints screen (F7) and change any desired settings in the Edit Printer Setup dialog. There is a new option on the dialog, "Use HP-GL/2 Vector Graphics". Mark this option if you want the printer to use HP-GL/2 mode. |
