HP LaserJet 4 / Lotus 1-2-3 for DOS R2.3/2.4 Wysiwyg Driver
Here is your 1-2-3 for DOS Release 2.3 and 2.4 Update disk to install the
HP LaserJet 4 printer driver used to create output in the Wysiwyg (:Print)
publishing environment of 1-2-3 for DOS. This driver is not available in
1-2-3 native-mode (/Print) or PrintGraph. Lotus' driver for the HP LaserJet
4 printer is enhanced to support PCL5 and HP-GL/2 to take advantage of
internal scalable fonts and vector graphics drawing for superior
performance. Lotus and HP have worked closely together to ensure that as
many of the new capabilities of the HP LaserJet 4 printer as possible are
supported by 1-2-3 for DOS.
Lotus and Hewlett-Packard hope that the HP LaserJet 4 printer driver meets
your needs.

CG Times, Univers, Albertus, Antique Olive, Courier,
Garamond Antiqua, Letter Gothic, CG Omega
HP-GL/2:
Full Vector Graphics Drawing

PCL 5 Language Switching
Paper Handling:
Two Input Bins
Installation Notes:
Before proceeding with the update, please make sure there are at least 1.3
megabytes of hard disk space available on the hard disk containing your
1-2-3 program. This amount of disk space is required temporarily to allow
the update to create copies of the files that will be modified. This is
done to insure that the integrity of all files being affected remains
intact during the update procedure.
You must have all access rights to the directory containing the 1-2-3
Release 2.3 or 2.4 program files. No one should be using 1-2-3 while the
update is being made.
To use the Update disk, you must complete the following instructions:
1. Insert the Update disk in drive A: (or B:).
2. At the operating system prompt, type A: (or B:) and press <ENTER> to
make A: (or B:) the current drive.
3. At the prompt, type UPDATENW followed by a space and the path of your
Release 2.3 or 2.4 directory, and then press <ENTER>. For example, if
you have Release 2.3 and your directory is X:LOTUS\123R23, you would
type UPDATENW X:\LOTUS\123R23 and then press <ENTER>. When the update is
complete, the following message appears: "1-2-3 Update files have
been installed."
4. You must now run the Lotus 1-2-3 Install program. Follow the instructions
in chapter 4 of Getting Started (if you have Release 2.3) or chapter 5 of
Getting Started (if you have Release 2.4) to start Install.
A. In the 1-2-3 Install program, choose "Change Selected
Equipment" and then choose "Add New Drivers to the
Library" and identify the drive A: (or B:) containing this
Update disk. When Install indicates that it has completed
adding the new drivers, choose "Return to the Main
Menu".
B. Choose "Select Your Equipment" from the Install Main
Menu and follow the instructions on the screen. The new
printer driver provided on this disk is a "Graphics Printer",
and its name will appear in Install's menu as: "LaserJet 4 PCL5".
C. Make sure you select "Yes" when Install asks if you
want to Generate Fonts.
If you have multiple driver sets, you must recreate each
driver set using Select Your Equipment.
=========================================================================
HP LaserJet 4 Application Notes:
1-2-3 for DOS will automatically use the internal scalable typefaces
resident in your HP LaserJet 4 printer when you use the "LaserJet 4 PCL5"
driver in Wysiwyg, the publishing environment which is part of Lotus 1-2-3
for DOS.
If you have a 1-2-3 spreadsheet which you would like to try printing with
your new HP LaserJet 4 printer driver, just /File Retrieve it. Make sure
that you select the appropriate driver and interface through Wysiwyg's
:Print menu or through the :Print dialog box. Then choose :Print Range
Set, and when your HP LaserJet 4 printer is ready, choose :Print Go.
Refer to your 1-2-3 User's Guide if you need more information on printing
with 1-2-3's Wysiwyg or the :Print menu(s). The following fonts in 1-2-3's
Wysiwyg display will automatically map to your HP LaserJet 4 printer:
Swiss=> Univers Dutch=> CG Times Courier=> Courier

Please keep in mind that 1-2-3's Wysiwyg display cannot show you the actual
font available in your printer. Moreover, you may notice that the spacing
between characters changes on screen when you've selected a font available
in your HP LaserJet 4 printer. This is done to indicate the width of
characters as they will appear on your printed output.

NOTES
If you are using Virus Scanning Software:
This modification will alter existing files, which may cause a virus
checking program to report a virus.
If you are using a virus scanning program that is memory resident, you may
wish to disable the resident virus scanner before proceeding with the
update, and re-enable it afterwards.
If you are using a non-memory resident virus scanning program that
maintains a record of files on your disk, you may receive a report that
some files in the 1-2-3 directory you updated have been modified since
they were was last scanned. You may wish to have the virus scanner re-

to update the record of the 123 files.
===========================================================================
ERROR MESSAGES
"The path of directory specified is not an updateable release of 1-2-3."
This indicates the 1-2-3 Release 2.3 or Release 2.4 files do not exist in
the path you specified. Please verify the directory you specify is valid
and contains the 1-2-3 files.
"You must specify a directory to update. Example: X:\LOTUS\123R24"
This indicates you did not specify a path when you ran UPDATENW. To run
UPDATENW, please verify the path your 1-2-3 files reside in and include
that path when you run UPDATENW. For example, if your 1-2-3 files reside
in X:\LOTUS\123R24 you should run the Update by entering:
UPDATENW C:\LOTUS\123R24.
ERROR: An error has occurred.
Please check the READ.ME file for information.
This message may be caused by insufficient disk space on the drive
containing the 1-2-3 files you are updating. 1.3 megabytes of disk space
is required temporarily to allow the update to create copies of the files
that will be modified. This is done to insure that the integrity of all
files being affected remain intact during the update procedure.
If you do have sufficient disk space, please make sure that the directory
and drive you specify are valid, that the 1-2-3 program files reside in the
drive/directory you specified, and that you are updating 1-2-3 Release 2.3
or 1-2-3 Release 2.4. Also, you should verify that the 1-2-3 program files
are not Read-Only as outlined in this document.
