IBM 4019 LaserPrinter (PostScript) And UNIX P |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is printing from WordPerfect to a UNIX print que which translates code into PostScript and sends it to the printer. The customer can get it to print correctly if the DOS Text printer is selected, but cannot access the fonts that come with the printer. If the customer selects the IBM 4019 LaserPrinter, it does not work, and if the customer selects the IBM 4019 LaserPrinter (PostScript) driver, it prints out the PostScript codes. Solutions: The customer is printing to a que that converts the information into PostScript language. This will work if it is ASCII text being sent. The DOS Text printer outputs the code in DOS text without any printer codes. The IBM 4019 LaserPrinter driver has a lot of printer code that cannot be converted into PostScript format; therefore, the document does not print correctly. PostScript code looks like text when sent through the conversion and thus is sent to the printer as text. The customer cannot convert the codes to PostScript. The customer must either select the PostScript printer and print without a conversion or select a printer driver that has no printer codes in it, like the DOS Text printer, and bypass the font selection. |
