WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: The IBM 4029 printer has a problem printing envelopes that the customer manually feeds. The envelope would come out of the printer blank or in the wrong orientation (e.g., portrait instead of landscape). Also, manually fed 8.5" x 11" forms pull from the paper cassette instead of from the manual feed slot. Solutions: This problem should be fixed on the next interim release after 02/13/92. Please watch the Software Change Notices for confirmation. The 11/05/91 release also had this same problem but the Global String Variable was different. If the customer has the 11/05/91 release date, please send the 04/24/92 update. Then the customer can fix this problem of the envelopes printing incorrectly by doing the following:

1.      Enter PTR
2.      Retrieve the .ALL file. (WPLA6.all or WPLA53.ALL)
3.      Press Alt-F8 to go to Global String Variables
4.      Go to pl4029, and press Enter to move to the right
5.      Press Ctrl-Enter to edit
6.      Go to IF(BIN==32) [1,0,0] (this is nine lines up from bottom)
7.      Change this to read IF(BIN==32) [1]SENDLO(ibmft)[0]
8.      Exit, save the file, and go into WP and update the printer (Shift-F7, S, 7)
