Wirth) Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc,une.general,aus.computers.ibm-pc Subject: Word V5.0 Keywords: Data Switch Message-ID: <3692@gara.une.oz.au> Date: 13 Sep 90 13:48:13 GMT Organization: University of New England, Armidale, Australia Lines: 21 I'm having problems with Microsoft Word V5.0 and Windows 3.0, in that I'm running two 286's through a data transfer switch. Now while other applications such as Harvard graphics and MS-Works prints Ok, both MS-Word and Windows(write) applications complain that the printer is not ready, yet when I bypass the data switch everything is ok. Has anyone else experienced such problems, got any ideas??
