Here is your 1-2-3 for DOS Release 2.3 and 2.4 Update disk to

===========================================================================
1-2-3 for DOS Release 2.3 Network Edition users:
If you are a network administrator and need to update the 1-2-3 for DOS
Release 2.3 Network Edition, you will require the Lotus 2.3 Network Edition
update disk. This update disk is available electronically via CompuServe
in the Hewlett-Packard peripherals forum, from Hewlett-Packard Distribution
at (303) 353-7650, or from Lotus Development Corporation.
===========================================================================
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.
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 UPDATE 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 C:\123R23,
you would type UPDATE C:\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.
=========================================================================
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
Additionally, you can also select the HP LaserJet 4 printer font by name
through the Wysiwyg menu :Format Font Replace (select a number 1-8) Other.
Then:
Select a printer font
Specify the point size
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.

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: c:\123R24"
This indicates you did not specify a path when you ran
update. To run update, please verify the path your 1-2-3 files reside in
and include that path when you run UPDATE. For example, if your 1-
2-3 files reside in C:\123R24 you should run the Update by entering:
UPDATE C:\123R24.
"ERROR: There is not enough free disk space.
1.3MB of free disk space is temporarily needed to perform the update."
This indicates that insufficient disk space is free 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.
