The accompanying files are for use with Amiga Wordperfect v4.1. They are
intended soley for use by registered purchasers of said product. No guarantees
as to functionality are expressed or implied - if this blows up your printer
don't tell me about it.
Copy the enclosed files into your PRINT: assigned directory.
Upon purchase of my Deskjet I became rapidly unhappy with the Word Perfect
Deskjet printer definition so I used Printdef to create the two enclosed. The
first allows you to switch among all the internal pitch sizes (5, 10, 16 & 20)
in either draft or final and is named HP Deskjet Standard. The second does
the same for 6 point tall internal pitch sizes. If you look in your manual
you will find 6 point sizes are half the size of the default 12 points (imagine
that!) and so they look a little scrunched with the larger pitch size.
Examples can be found on page 7-10 of your HP Deskjet manual.
These printer defs also turn off auto perforation skip which can cause
complications. It is useful to use a page length of 61 in Word Perfect
while using these defs. In addition, you may want to put all initialization
codes on a blank first page (use control-enter to move text to page two) so
that you don't get some extra line feeds on page one (I can't seem to get rid
of them).
To list the different pitch options, pull up print control and choose "display
printers". This will list the fonts selection numbers (1 through 8) along with
their corresonding definitions. With these fresh in your mind get out of print
control and go to "format" "print" "pitch/font" and enter the desired pitch
and font selection.
These defs are also set up for different types of paper. The default is bin
#1 which is whatever the printer default is set to. Bin #2 is Envelope feed
for use when feeding #10 envelopes into your Deskjet. Bin #3 sets up your
printer for legal size paper. Use "format" "print" "sheet feeder bin" to
choose these.
When using envelope feed the envelope must already be loaded into the friction
rollers. This does not mean fully loaded under the print head.
