Problem

Symptoms: The WP printer strings for the BDT LaserFeeder 890 sheet feeder are incorrect. The strings say:
      IF (Bin==3) "4"
      ELSEIF (Bin==4)
They need to be changed to:
      IF (Bin==4) "E"
and the ELSEIF (Bin==4) should be deleted.

A customer said the way the strings are set up now will only allow him to print from bin 1 and 2. When he changed these strings he was able to use the full bin capabilities of his sheet feeder. The source of his information for the correct strings is page 4 of the BDT 890 manual. Solutions: The customer has a BDT 890+ sheet feeder, not an 890. There is a slight variation between the two sheet feeders in their bin select commands. For Bin 3 the 890 needs a ((4)) and the 890+ needs a ((3)). For Bin 4 the 890 needs a ((3)) and the 890+ needs an ((E)). Bin 3 is the third standard bin and Bin 4 is the envelope bin. Modifying the bin select string in the printer definition will allow the sheet feeder to pull from all bins. This change can be made for any user with the 890+ sheet feeder by following these steps:
1.      Retrieve the .ALL file into the PTR Program
2.      Press Shift-F8 for Sheet Feeders
3.      Select the BDT 890 sheet feeder
4.      Select Printer Commands/Insert Form
5.      At the right of If(BIN==3) change the "4" to "3"
6.      At the right of ElseIf(BIN==4) change the "3" to "E"
7.      Exit, save, and replace the file
8.      Reselect the sheet feeder in WP (Shift-F7, S, 3, 3)

WP does not support the 890+ sheet feeder at this time. WPCorp does not have the sheet feeder in house.
