HP Network - Blank Page Between Print Jobs |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer is on the HP Network with Advance print. When printing, a blank page comes out between print jobs. Suppress Top Of Form set to either Y or N does not make a difference. This problem happens with both WP 5.0 and 5.1. Solutions: We do not have the HP Network in house. This answer will not help everyone with this problem because it involves removing one of the safety features of our printer definitions. Basically, what is happening is that WP is not sending the last form feed of the print job. But, after the job is done printing, WP is sending the "Reset at End of Print Job" codes. These codes are causing the printer to eject the last page, which is then followed by another form feed from the network. If you take out the "Reset Printer at End of Print Job" codes, then the last form feed sent by the network will cause the last page to come out and there will be no blank separator pages. However, the HP printer will be left in the state that WP leaves it in. If an application prints to the printer that is just sending text and not any codes, then the printer will print the job in whatever font and from whichever tray WP left it with. To delete the "Reset at End of Print Job" codes: 1. Enter the PTR program and retrieve the .ALL or .PRS file. Press Enter on the printer name. 2. Highlight "Initialize and Reset" and press Enter. 3. Cursor to "Reset at End of Print Job" and press the right arrow key. 4. Press Control-End. 5. Exit the PTR program and save the file. If the .ALL file was modified, update the .PRS file by pressing Shift-F7 (Print), S (Select Printer), #7 (Update) inside WP. |
