DocumentID: 645517
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 8:19:07 PM

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

Problem

Symptoms: The Unisys Model 37 Laser printer will only print an envelope from the manual tray if the customer changes the printer menu to read manual. If the printer is not set to manual, it will then draw a piece of paper from the single continuous tray. The sheet feeder is defined as none and the form locations are either manual or continuous. Solutions: The customer must press the manual feed button on the printer before printing a manually fed form. Manually feeding paper is not supported by WordPerfect's printer driver. The printer can print manually using software codes. If the customer desires to print this way, the following changes can be made in the PTR program:

1.      Enter the PTR program, retrieve the .ALL file and press Enter on the printer name
2.      Press Enter on Printer Commands
3.      Highlight Manual Feed On and press the right arrow key to place the cursor in the Expression box. Type hpmanon
4.      Type hpmanoff in the Expression box for Manual Feed Off
5.      Exit the PTR program and save the modified .ALL file
6.      Update the .PRS file in WordPerfect by pressing Shift-F7 (Print), S (Select Printer), 7 (Update)

This change will allow manual feeding to work from the program, but the customer should not select a form for manual feeding that is larger than the paper tray in the printer. The customer should also be told that WP does not support this setup.
