But the problem disappears after I run Wordperfect 5.1 configured for the Imagewriter. My theory is that Wordperfect sends some sort of initialization string to the printer before it prints anything. So my question is - does anybody know the initialization string to send to the Apple Imagewriter connected to an IBM AT? -Thanks ********************************************************************* Group :Fungal Growth Engineering and Testing Range Location :Toronto, Ontario, Canada (44x N/79x W) Organization :Fungal Growth Club of Canada UUCP Address : ...uunet!mnetor!{becker,hybrid}!spocom!fungus!larry or : larry@fungus.UUCP Ancient Chinese-Canadian Curse: May a 7% tax be on everything you see, eat and hear.
