Is there anyone who has installed a Daisy M-50 daisy wheel printer in WordStar (version 3.0). I know the Daisy M-45 has to be installed as either a Diablo 1610/1620 or as a Qume sprint 5 printer. A M-50 however doesn't work well than. I first installed it as a Sprint 5 printer and found that every second line got printed backwards. This was resolved by putting a .bp off in the file (is there an instalation option to do this?). Than I found out that as long as WordStar didn't fill the lines everything went fine. As soon as WordStar started to fill lines (and micro justify them) printing went wrong. It prints about one line (unreadable) and than the printer starts to flash its RST light indicating wrong control code's. Installing it as any other daisy wheel does not solve the problems. Is there anyone who has a clue as to wat might be wrong ? Please mail to the following addres: -- Arrie v.d.Vliet, Delft Univ. of Tech. ..!{decvax,philabs}!dutesta!sp
