HP LaserJet Series II Redline Too Dark |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: This customer thinks that the Auto Redline method on the HP LaserJet Series II is too dark (WP Character 3,1) and he would like to change it to a lighter character (3,0). The customer would also like to know if there is a way to tell the printer to access the lighter box character when using the Auto Redline on Same Pass method without changing to WP Redline on Separate Pass to do so. In other words, some code is being sent for the Auto Redline method--is there a way to change that code so that it will choose another character? Solutions: The code that this is sending out is a graphics code and NOT a character code. If the customer wants his redline to be lighter, there is one code to change. This code can be changed by using the following steps: 1. Enter the PTR and retrieve the .ALL file 2. Press Enter on the HP LaserJet Series II and press Alt-F8 (Global Variables) 3. Cursor to the variable "hpredoff", press Enter, then press Ctrl-Enter. There is a segment of code that reads "b15g2P". This code can be found at the end of the second line of code in this variable (there are three lines). The number to change is the 15. This number represents a percentage of gray. The user can change this to 10 or 2 (for 10% or 2% gray shading). The HP printers are limited to only 8 shades. If you use any value 1-2 you will receive one shade, 3-10 will move you to the next, 11-20, 21-35, etc. Note: The font color [i.e., white] cannot be used in conjunction with redline or else no text will print. So, most customers will not want to set redline to 100% where the background color will be completely black.) 4. Save the file and exit PTR 5. Enter WP and update the printer (Shift-F7, S, 7) |
