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

Problem

Solutions: The customer had three problems printing with WP's driver:

1.      The rotation of the landscape printing was the opposite of what the printer did in IBM mode, causing problems when printing remotely with ports assigned to different modes.

2.      After printing an envelope in the manual mode the printer did not reset to continuous mode and wouldn't draw from the paper tray.

3.      With the printer in PostScript mode the print on an envelope had "light streaks through it."

The customer used the PTR Program to modify the prologue variable (not the prologue.410 or the prologue.ibm). His modifications are very similar to those in memo ALL_8707K:

1.      Enter the PTR Program by typing PTR at the appropriate DOS prompt
2.      Retrieve the WPPS1.ALL file
3.      Press Alt-F8 to get to the Global String Variables
4.      Press Enter and then Ctrl-Enter to position the variable for editing
5.      Enter the following codes (Note that all text is in lower case):
      /_ornt{/pwid exch def /plen exch def
      orntsv 1 eq {plen 0 translate 90 rotate} if
      orntsv 2 eq {pwid plen translate 180 rotate} if
      orntsv 3 eq {0 pwid translate -90 rotate} if
      dup 1 eq {0 plen translate -90 rotate} if
      dup 2 eq {pwid plen translate 180 rotate} if
      dup 3 eq {pwid 0 translate 90 rotate} if
      /orntsv exch def
      } bdef
6.      Save the .ALL file
7.      Exit PTR
8.      Return to WP and update the .PRS file (Shift-F7, S, 7)

Minor differences in order of commands and spacing may not be significant.
