Problem
Solutions: This memo replaces the information which was in Folio as STR 0003933: In WordPerfect 5.1 (11/06 HP drivers), when you send a manual feed job to an HP LaserJet printer, the printer prompts you to feed in a sheet of legal paper, regardless of whether your form is defined as letter, legal, envelope, A4, C5 or whatever. This was intentional. The reasoning is that legal is the largest paper size acceptable by every HP LaserJet printer, in both directions. So, the driver was designed to "fool" the printer into thinking it was printing on legal paper, and then to position the text relative to the perceived margins. In almost all cases, the text actually did print correctly, and the biggest problem was the customer's reaction to the "PF FEED LEGAL" (or similar) message on the printer. After receiving a lot of complaints from customers, Development has redesigned the drivers so that they will prompt for the correct paper size in almost all cases. Any odd-sized forms will still result in a prompt for legal paper, since the printer does not recognize the form size. In these cases, the reasoning is as explained above, and will work as intended. These changes should show up on the second set of 5.1 printer masters. |
