WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The customer is using the IBM Quietwriter II with a single bin sheet feeder. They have not defined the sheet feeder within WordPerfect 5.1, but the forms are defined as Continuous. After each print job, WP will feed in the next sheet of paper. This problem has been fixed for some users by simply selecting the sheet feeder definition instead of selecting None and using Bin 1 as the location of the form.

Users can also correct this problem by editing the printer driver in the PTR program. To do this, use the following steps:

1.      Enter PTR program and retrieve the .PRS or .ALL file, and press Enter on the printer name
2.      Go into Initialize And Reset, and make the following change...

FROM:
Reset/Advance at End of Page (blank)
Printer Auto Page Advance IF(BIN<=O||...etc.
Eject Page (When Not Using Sheet Feeder) (blank)
Set Page Length [27]"2"[27]"C"SENDLO...

TO:
Reset/Advance at End of Page [12]
Printer Auto Page Advance YES
Eject Page (When Not Using Sheet Feeder) (blank)
Set Page Length (leave it how it was)

3.      Exit out of the PTR program and save the modified printer file
4.      If the above changes were made to the .ALL, update the .PRS file in WordPerfect by pressing Shift-F7 (Print), S (Select Printer), 7 (Update)

After making this change, users should select None for Sheet Feeder in WP and set the paper location to Continuous. Adding [12] to Reset/Advance at End of Page will also correct problems with a blank page ejecting after each printed page.
