Apple LaserWriter IINT Not Printing
DocumentID: 647561
Revision Date: 29-Feb-96 8:19:22 PM

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

Problem

Symptoms: The printer light blinks, indicating receipt of data on the Apple LaserWriter IINT but it never prints. Printer control counts the pages being sent and then Printer Control will indicates that the job is done. Solutions: The customer had a hardware problem in the cable. Sending the following will tell if it is working at a DOS level:
copy con com1
showpage
^D ^Z
If the printer is working at a DOS level, but not in WP there could be a difference in the setup between printer and WP. If a postscript printer receives incorrect data, it will not print anything. The only way to tell is to copy the error handler to the printer (EHANDLER.PS) which will be in the printer directory. Then when an error occurs at the printer it will print the error that occurred.
