If you want to Printer definitionsrecommended steps for changingchange a printer definition, the following steps are recommended, since they allow you to make mistakes without destroying a working definition: 1. ̝Create a new printer definition using the old one as a pattern-this is your duplicate of the original;G 2. ̝Edit the original printer definition, and test it by using it in WordPerfect;G 3. After the modified definition has been thoroughly tested, Delete the duplicate printer definition only if you are sure you will never need it.Gh *ÝPrinter Initializationquestions explainedPrinter Initialization胜 Printer TypeexplanationPrinter Type Enter 1 if you have a Tandy DWP IIBTandy DWP IIBspecial printer type type printer.

Warning! Printer problemsbroken underlinesUnderline characters may not overlap and bolding is performed on a second pass. Enter 0 for any other kind of printer. Initialize Printer Before Print JobexplanationInitialize Printer Before Print Job This string is sent to the printer at the beginning of every print job. Use this to reset the pitch, line spacing, etc., before printing each document. Reset Printer After Print JobexplanationReset Printer After Print Job This string is used to reset the printer at the end of every print job. Use this to advance the page to top of form, reset the pitch, etc. Remember that whatever state WordPerfect leaves the printer in is the state in which it will be found by the next program. Initialize Printer at Start of PageexplanationInitialize Printer at Start of Page This is sent to the printer at the beginning of every page. Reset Printer at End of PageexplanationReset Printer at End of Page If defined, WordPerfect sends this string to the printer at the end of every page instead of trying to advance to the top of the next page. Always include a form feed in this string if you use it in a printer definition. Move Print Head to Center of PlatenexplanationMove Print Head to Center of Platen If you have a sheet feeder on your printer, this string will be sent before each page is inserted. This keeps the paper against the platen, preventing the Printer problemsprint head rips paperprint head from tearing the paper. Send Bell to PrinterexplanationSend Bell to Printer When Waiting for a "Go"? This flag is ignored in the Amiga version of WordPerfect. Instead of sending a bell to the printer, a "Go" is displayed on the screen. Form Lengthsetting form length at printer h Forms Length Setting Type This value tells WordPerfect which type of form length setting string to send to the printer. Type 0 should be used when no form length string is needed or wanted. Selecting another number will cause WordPerfect to send a specific string to the printer whenever a page length setting is encountered in a document. Information about which string is sent for each type selected is found in the help information of the PRINTDEF program. *ÝCarriage Return/Backspace ControlCarriage Return/Backspace Controlquestions explained蜃 Perform Carriage ReturnPerform Carriage Returnexplained Printer problemsprinter requires CR's to be matched with LF'sSome printers require that CR's and LF's be sent together. If this is the case, enter <13><10> here and answer "yes" to Automatic Line Feed with Carriage Return? If the string is blank, it is assumed to consist of the standard carriage return character <13>. Automatic Carriage Return with Line FeedexplanationAutomatic Carriage Return with Line Feed? Some printers will automatically perform a CR when they receive a LF code. Answer "yes" if your printer does this. Automatic Line Feed with Carriage Return?Automatic Line Feed with Carriage Returnexplanation Some printers automatically perform a LF when they receive a CR code. Answer "yes" if your printer does this. If you answer "yes" to this question and you do not have a backspace, you may not be able to Printer problemsbold text won't printbold, Printer problemsunderlined text won't printUnderlineprinter unable tounderline, or Printer problemsoverstriking won't printOverstrikeprinter unable tooverstrike. (See Also Perform Carriage Return). Does Printer Have Backspace Capability?Does Printer Have Backspace Capabilityexplanation Some printers cannot backspace. If yours can, answer "yes" and enter the backspace command under Perform Backspace. If your printer does not have a backspace or a reverse line feed, it may not be able to consistently overstrike, underline or Superscriptprinter unable tosuperscript. Perform Backspace This string will be sent whenever WordPerfect sends a backspace to the printer. If the string is blank, it is assumed to consist of the standard backspace character <8>. Auto Underline on Second Pass This flag is only used if the printer has its own automatic underlining strings. It determines whether the underlining is done on the first pass as the text is being printed, or if the underlining is done on a separate pass by itself. h Some printers will not underline the partial spaces that WordPerfect may use to right justify the line. If these microspaces do not underline properly, the underlining will be broken. Setting this flag to Y will cause WordPerfect to do its underlining on a separate pass after the text has been printed, so that the underline characters will print continuously. A sideeffect of using this method is that the underling may end a little before the correct position when printing in proportional spacing. Boldgetting darker bold textNumber of Overstrikes for Bolding  When a printer does not have automatic bolding, WordPerfect will print bolded text by striking the bolded text more than once. The value of this variable will determine how many strikes are made. * ÝLine Spacing and VMILine Spacing and VMIquestions explainedꃜ Set 6 Lines/InchexplanationSet 6 Lines/Inch Insert the command here that sets your printer to 6 lines per inch (not required if your printer supports VMI). Set 8 Lines/InchexplanationSet 8 Lines/Inch Insert the command here that sets your printer to 8 lines per inch (not required if your printer supports VMI). Perform Line FeedexplanationPerform Line Feed This is used to advance down the page one line. Almost every printer requires a <10> here. Some printers require that CR's and LF's be sent together. If this is the case, enter <13><10> here and answer "yes" to Automatic Carriage Return with Line Feed? Perform Reverse Line FeedexplanationPerform Reverse Line Feed This is used to advance up the page one line. If your printer has this capability, enter the code for it here. Perform 1/2 Line FeedexplanationPerform 1/2 Line Feed If your printer cannot do this, you will not be able to use the Advance 1/2 lineunable to performPrinter problemsadvance 1/2 line doesn't workAdvance Down feature in WordPerfect, unless your printer supports VMI.

This was formerly used to Advance Paper 1/48th Inchchanged to 1/24th inchadvance paper 1/48th of an inch. VMI UnitexplanationVMI Unit VMIdefinition ofVMI (Vertical Motion Index) defines the vertical distance the platen moves when the printer receives a line feed or reverse line feed. Enter the units in which VMI is defined on your printer. Most printers which support VMI accept settings in 1/48th inch increments. Set VMIexplanationSet VMI If a printer supports VMI, this string is sent to the printer whenever WordPerfect needs to adjust the width of a line feed or rev
