- Hi
- We just last Friday installed wp5.1 on a Risc 6000 530h. They
- have an educational program and it's price to ASU was 310 for an
- 8 person license. We had no problem installing it, but their
- drivers for our printers ibm 4029's are a little clumsy and we
- had to do some work to get it to print correctly in postscript.
- hope this helps

- Jeanne,
-
- I read the message you posted on comp.unix.aix. Although I don't have
- the posting you are looking for, I'm very interested in receiving a
- copy of it in case you get it thru direct email. I have just installed
- aix 3.2.3 over the weekend after a failed (and traumatic!) upgrade from
- v3.1.5. Since then, my users have been unable to print WP documents.
- After two full days of calls to WPCorp and upgrading WordPerfect to
- have it working under aix 3.2.3., printing still doesn't work. As a
- cheap and dirty trick, I'm letting users write to the device (I know
- this is crazy, but they have to keep going with their work...).
- If you get anything on this subject, or any other problems I may
- anticipate with the new version, could you please bounce me a copy?
- Thanks...

- I don't remember the posting, but we do have WP 5.1 running on our machines.
- It was just installed, but no problems so far.
-
- We have Model 220s with AIX 3.2.3.
