- (1) Yesterday suddenly NB4 stopped text-wrapping at the correct place, both on
- screen and in printing. Lines wrapped at about 19 inches in one file, 21
- inches in another, regardless of the various TW deltas I put in to try to
- correct the problem. This happened again today. Then, just as suddenly and
- inexplicably, the problem cured itself, with both the default margins and TW
- deltas working correctly. Just in case this should happen again, does anyone
- know why it does or how to cure it? Will a placebo work as well as an
- antibiotic?
-
- (2) Occasionally the @#^%!&*$ thing refuses to print. (This is on a Toshiba
- 341SL that has never given trouble before.) Makes no difference whether I try
- from the action line or from the menu. Quitting and rebooting fixes this, but
- is there a quicker way? I seem to remember someone mentioning this problem on
- the List, but don't remember the answer.
