4315.1 | Is the LA75 in OTHER mode? | LODGE::LEN | David M. Len | Tue Nov 27 1990 17:58 | 3 |
| I have been using the CBM_MPS1000 driver from WB 1.3 without any
problems. The LA75 should be set to OTHER mode (i.e. IBM compatibility)
for this to work properly.

4315.2 | Works for me, also | DECWET::DAVIS | whatever it was, it ain't no more | Tue Nov 27 1990 18:42 | 4 |
| Ditto with -.1. I am using CBM_MPS1000 driver with the LA75 in IBM
emulation mode. Graphics and text prints great.

4315.3 | Deluxe Print II and an LA75 | WEDOIT::DAUB | | Wed Nov 28 1990 16:48 | 26 |
| I am using Printer.device from 10-AUG-87, the size of the driver
is 18768. The CBM_MPS1000 date is the same with a size of 4836.
The problem I had was getting Deluxe Print II to size the printout
correctly. The print window would not let me print with a width set
to anything wider than 4", even though 8" would be put into the
width when I used the MAX WIDTH pushbutton. This problem was the
same when using any printer.device with a later date, under WB 1.3;
& trying to use a printer.device eariler than Oct-88 with WB 1.3
caused a system crash. When I went to WB 1.2 and used Printer.device
dated eariler than 10-AUG-87, I got extra blank lines in the printout.
But WB 1.2 with Printer.device size 18768 and CBM_MPS1000 size 4836
seemed to be the only combination that would work correctly for
Deluxe Print II on the La75.
Only,.. the CBM_MPS1000 driver used with graphic dump, seemed to
cause the first couple of lines to be messed up. The EpsonX[...1250]
driver worked fine for graphic dump, but not for ProWrite or anything
else. Anyway... the latest Printer.device seems to be a problem
when used on an La75.... at least with the Deluxe Print II package.
Any body else out there using Deluxe Print II on an La75?

4315.4 | Driver size | DECWET::DAVIS | nice computers don't go down | Wed Nov 28 1990 23:11 | 8 |
| I have not tried using DPrintII but Pen Pal and all my other printing
utilities work great on my LA75. Here are the sizes of my copies
of printer.device and CBM_MPS1000. They are 26964 and 5896,
respectively. I use PrintPlus, a shareware graphics printing utility
from one of the later Fish disks when I need to print pictures. Its
output is excellent! FWIW.

4315.5 | Print Density | NITMOI::WITHERS | Another Hallmark Moment. -Al Bundy | Thu Nov 29 1990 11:34 | 7 |
| I had a similar problem with Deluxe Print II only printing the size of
rougly a postage stamp on my Citizen GSZ-140/Color. Eventually, EA support
let me know that the software doesn't like higher density printers. I had
to go to the graphics section of the printer preferences and set my print
density to either 1 or 2. I'd try this if I we're you.

4315.6 | Thanks | WEDOIT::DAUB | | Fri Nov 30 1990 16:49 | 7 |

Thanks for the inputs. I think my print density it set to 3. I'll
try some changes over the weekend if I have time and post anything
note worthy in this note.
