The program FujitsuDL can be copied freely while it is not spread on
discs which cost more than US$3 or the equivalent value in an other
currency. Fred Fish can take more than the amount mentioned before.
In addition to this it is only allowed to copy the complete directory.
Users of the program are under obligation to send me a mail that they
are using my program. This is because I want to know if someone is
using my Public Domain software and if it makes sense to develope new
software und to update the old one. So please write! E-Mail is welcome
(address: see below).
Since Version 4.0 is FujitsuDL Shareware. This means that users are
under obligation to pay a little amount of money if they are using this
program. I have worked hard on this new version, so it is your part
to appreciate my work and pay 10 US$ or an equivalent value in an
other currency.
I do NOT give any guarantee that the program works in the way I have
described in this documentation file. You are using the software on
YOUR OWN RISK and as a result of this I disclaim liability in any
case!
Introduction
The Fujitsu DL printer setup is quiet different from all other
printers I know. The printer displays his current setups on paper and
you change this setups via the printer panel. This procedure has got
advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand you need not to remember
many crazy keystrokes and you have got all your setups on the paper
which makes it very easy to have an overview about your setups all the
time. On the other hand this procedure is very slow and it is wasting
a lot of paper. In addition to this you are not able to setup your
printer temporary.
With FujitsuDL you do not have the disadvantages mentioned before but
you have all advantages. You can setup your printer fast AND easily
without wasting paper.
Start and installation
Copy FujitsuDL to SYS:Prefs, because FujitsuDL is a preference
program, too. If you want that the text will be localized copy the
complete directory Catalogs into the same directory you copied FujitsuDL.
You can start FujitsuDL doubleclicking its icon.
FujitsuDL needs Kickstart 2.04 or higher. If you are using Workbench 2.1
or higher the locale.library will be used.
Version 4.0 or higher needs MUI 1.4, a fantastic System that allows
the user to set up the application interface.
On a 640x200 screen with Topaz 8 FujitsuDL calculates a Topaz 4 font
and uses this. If you want to use a bigger font it is a good idea to
minimize the window dimensions. In this case you must you use the
preference programm of MUI.
Usage
Because FujitsuDL is a preferences program, it interacts like a
preference program. You can learn the usage of a preference program
from the handbook of the Amiga. An other source is the Amiga User
Interface Style Guide which gives more detailed information.
The meaning of the single setups you can get from the handbook of the
Fujitsu DL printers.
Version 4.0 does not support the tooltype PUBSCREEN. You can
determine the public screen of FujitsuDL with the preference program
of MUI.
Attention! The new Version 4.0 does not overtake you old settings.
Thank you
I want to thank all user for writting me letters. It is astonishing
how fast programs are spread all over the world.
Thank you to Stefan Stuntz for MUI! Without MUI it would have taken
much more time to program FujitsuDL 4.0. The iconified icon was taken
from sources of WBMan a program written by Klaus Melchior! Thank you
Klaus.
Thank you to Peter Groth and Frank Hille. They were the very first
users of FujitsuDL and they are still using it:)
A special thank to Erik Muschketat who found bugs I would have never
found. He was also the only one who payed the share before a share was
requested.
Support
Critics and bugreports are always welcome. I will try to answer as
soon as possible and solve your problems with FujitsuDL.
