WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: The Star Micronics XB-2415 printer does not need to have changes made to the .PRS file. The first release of the printer was unable to do reverse line feeds while in sheet feeder or manual mode. This caused the printer to misplace the underline when trying to position the underline. To correct this problem the customer should upgrade their ROM for this printer. Star fixed this problem after the driver came out. When the customer is using the cut sheet feeder she must set the printer to friction feed. When this printer is set to friction feed the underline will not work correctly. This is because we use a reverse line feed command with underline and this causes the printer to print misaligned.

This printer problem can be corrected for by using the steps below:
1.      Using PTR retrieve the customer *.PRS file.
2.      Enter on Star XB-2415
3.      Enter on Attribute Methods
4.      Enter on Underline
5.      Enter on WPs Underline on Separate Pass
6.      Curser to the right of Vertical Movement (1200ths)
7.      Delete the expression IF(!ortr)-PTSIZE/30ENDIF
8.      Exit out and save

Note: Regardless of the type of underline marked(step 5), the vertical motion adjustment (step 6) must be blanked out.

This may also apply to the first ROM revision on the Star XB-2410, which is the narrow carriage version of the Star XB-2415 printer.
