Printing Through An OS/2 LAN Server With DOS |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: Customers using an OS/2 LAN server with DOS requested stations may have problems printing. One troubleshooting option is to check the printer port. If the port is set to LPT1:, suggest they change it to LPT1 without the colon or PRN. To enter the port in this manner the user must select the Other option. The advantage to using the PRN port over the LPT1: port is that the computer will pick any open parallel port and print through it. On OS/2 networks with DOS requesters, when setting up the printer you have to specify LPT1 without the colon in order for the print job to be released to the printer. WPCorp has been unable to duplicate this problem on OS/2 Lan Server versions after WR4098. Customers have had success fixing this problem after updating their network software. Another alternative is to have the customer start WordPerfect with the /NE startup option. This has been successful for some customers. *This information is given as a troubleshooting option. |
