[mod.protocols.appletalk] FX-80 emulation problems with Centram TOPSprint

schear@ttidca@ames.UUCP (02/25/87)

We have installed Centram's TOPS and TOPSprint on an AT with 512K.
The AT is typically used by our secretary under MASS-11 (wordprocessor).
Our problem is that although the FX-80 - Laserwriter emulation permits
printing via the DOS 'print' function, it functions strangely, and
incorrectly via our WP.

We have spoken to the WP vendor who assures us that their package is
in use with many FX-80 printers and operating fine.  Since TOPS is the
new kid on the block, I am inclined to think that the problem lies there.

Has anyone installed these two packages together and gotten them to
live in harmony?
