Problem

Solutions: To find a printer's minimum margins or text adjustments, try the following steps.

1.      Start on a blank screen in WordPerfect
2.      Press Shift-F8 for Format
3.      Press 2 for Page, 5 for Margins Top and Bottom
4.      Type 1 Enter, 0 Enter
5.      Press Enter again
6.      Press 1 for Line, 7 for Margins Left and Right
7.      Type 1 Enter, 0 Enter
8.      Press 5 for Line Numbering, Y for Yes
9.      Press F7, you should now be on a blank screen
10.      Press the "x" key until it wraps to the next line
11.      Press Enter until you see a single dashed line (soft page break)
12.      Press Home, Home, Up
13.      Press Shift-F7, "T" for Text Quality, 2 for Draft
14.      Print the page

When it prints, you should have numbers 1-60 down the left side of the page with a 1" top margin and no bottom margin.

There should be a 1" left margin to where the x's, not the numbers, begin because the numbers print in the margin. There should be no right margin.

If you do not get a 1" top or left margin, you need to put in the proper text adjustment.

If you get a 1" left margin, or if you have adjusted it, and your right margin is not 0", the resulting margin becomes the minimum right margin.

If you get a 1" top margin, or if you have adjusted it, and your bottom margin is not 0", the resulting margin becomes the minimum bottom margin.
