2537.0. "select printer tray in wpsplus and using postscript driver" by CROCKE::YUEN (Banquo Yuen, Darwin Australia) Wed Apr 07 1993 01:09

    Hello
    
    When choosing printer tray within wpsplus document and use
    proscript driver, blank pages coming out from the correct
    selected tray.
    
    Have a look at the poscript file generated, it reads
    
    ....
    %%BeginSetup
    WPS_PLUS_dict begin
    WPLMCS /Courier-WPLMCS /Courier # save
    %%EndSetup
    %%Page: 1 1
    /WPL-page-save save def
    WPS_PLUS_dict
    statusdict begin /setpapertray where {pop 2 setpagertray) if end 75 720 m 12
    ...
    
    And if I swap some lines, it works
    
    ....
    %%BeginSetup
    WPS_PLUS_dict begin
    WPLMCS /Courier-WPLMCS /Courier # save
    %%EndSetup
    %%Page: 1 1
    statusdict begin /setpapertray where {pop 2 setpagertray) if end2
    /WPL-page-save save def
    WPS_PLUS_dict
    75 720 m 1
    ...
    
    It is ALL-IN-1 version 2.4 I am talking, using the same printer table
    and same WPSPLUS version 4.0, it works fine in ALL-IN-1 version 3.0.
    So I don't know whether I should post this here or in the WPSPLUS
    conference, moreover, the node ABACUS:: is always (99 out of 100)
    unreachable when I try to read the note file and the note file
    seems to point to MKOTS4 instead ... Anyway it works in ALL-IN-1
    V3.0, so I post here.
    
    Thanks

    Hi Banquo,
    
    Does the STARS article : 
    
    WPS-PLUS/VMS British v4.0 Postscript tray selection gives blank output
    
    help at all ?
    
    Regards,
    
    Clive
    
2537.2Ask WPS-PLUSIOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeWed Apr 07 1993 19:114
    This is really a WPS-PLUS question. Their notesfile is on
    FREE::WPS-PLUS according to note 4.79 in this conference.

2537.3STARS are stars that I can't touchCROCKE::YUENBanquo Yuen, Darwin AustraliaThu Apr 08 1993 10:3713
    Hello Clive
    
    I don't know whether the STARS article will help or not because
    I don't have access to STARS (actually I was told I don't have access,
    I don't even know how to access, but I know such thing exists).
    So I shall be very grateful if you could send me the article without
    having too much trouble. (CROCKE:: is 59.324)
    
    I will take a look at the WPS-PLUS conference as well because I got
    some share-ruler problems that I shuold have answered the customer
    3 months ago, thank Graham for the pointer to the note file.
    
    Banquo.
