Solutions: How to print from WordPerfect to the NeXT 400 dpi Laser printer with 2.0: Version 5.0 To print WordPerfect documents on your NeXT printer, you must first modify your PostScript printer driver in WordPerfect's PTR program. Use the Apple LaserWriter IINT for best results.* 1. From DOS, enter the PTR Program by typing PTR. 2. Press Shift-F10 to retrieve your .PRS file. Press F5 to get a list of .PRS files. 3. Enter on APLASIIN.PRS (or whatever PostScript driver you're using), Enter again on the name of the printer, move to the bottom of the list to Variables, and press Enter. 4. Move down to "PROLOGUE." Press Enter, then Ctrl-Enter. Edit the first part of the code to read: "%!PS-Adobe-2.0" BEGINTEXT %%DocumentFonts: (atend) %%BoundingBox: (atend) %%EndComments Note - There is only one space after the colons (:) 5. Press F7, then F7 again, then move to Printer Commands and press Enter. Move to "Reset at end of Print Job," press Enter, and then Ctrl-Enter. Delete the "[4]" from the line, and press F7 to exit. 6. Press F7 twice, and you should see the name of your printer. Press 3 for Rename. Enter NeXT Printer as the name, and press Enter. Press F7 and answer Yes to save. Type in a new name for the .PRS file (NEXT.PRS) and press Enter. Exit from the PTR program. 7. Execute WP and press Shift-F7, S for Select, 2 for Additional, 4 for List Printer Files, and highlight the NEXT.PRS and press Enter. You may want to set up your printer port as a file if you are using a disk transfer. Once printed to disk, use the UNIX command lpr to dump the print to disk from the terminal. You must have some sort of file transfer system from IBM to NeXT. (Network floppy driver that reads IBM format.) Version 5.1 To print WP documents on your NeXT printer, you must first modify your PostScript printer driver in WP's PTR program. Use the Apple LaserWriter IINT for best results.* 1. From DOS, enter the PTR program by typing PTR. 2. Press Shift-F10 to retrieve your .PRS file. Press F5, change *.ALL to *.PRS to get a list of .PRS files. 3. Enter on APLASIIN.PRS (or whatever PostScript driver you're using), and press Enter twice. Press Alt-F8 to go to Variables. 4. Move down to "PROLOGUE." Press Enter, then press Ctrl-Enter. Edit the first part of the code to read: "%!PS-Adobe-2.0" BEGINTEXT %%DocumentFonts: (atend) %%BoundingBox: (atend) %%EndComments Note - There is only one space after the colons (:) 5. Press F7, then F7 again. Move down to Printer Commands and press Enter. Move to "Reset at end of Print Job," press Enter and then Ctrl-Enter. Delete the "[4]" from the line and press F7 to exit. 6-7 Same as steps 6 and 7 for 5.0. * Again, any PostScript driver will work, but the Apple LaserWriter will work best. If you use soft fonts, make sure that they are marked with a plus only and not an asterisk on the Fonts/Cartridges screen. |
