The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer could not print Adobe soft fonts to an HP LaserJet 4 PostScript printer with a custom printer driver. Solutions: The customer had set up the HP printer incorrectly. The printer personality was set at AUTO to allow it to switch back and forth between PostScript and PCL. With the printer in this mode, the PostScript fonts were being purged by the printer to allow switching to PCL; which cannot use these fonts. The HP LaserJet 4 cannot have soft fonts initialized to it if it is Auto Personality. The printer has to be in PostScript mode, then the fonts can be initialized. Setting the personality to PS corrects the problem. The personality can be changed by doing the following: 1. Take the printer off-line 2. Press the Menu button until Job Menu displays 3. Press Item until Personality displays 4. Press the + (plus) key until PS displays 5. Press Enter to put an * (asterisk) by PS 6. Reset the printer If the customer would like the ability to switch back and forth between PCL and PS they need to mark the fonts with a plus. If customers need more information about this setup, please refer them to HP. |
