I'm having a problem with Appleworks GS and the Imager[D D C
BX667312@CCNYVME.BITNET (01/21/89)
I'm having trouble printing files on an Imagewriter I while using the databas
e and word processing modules of Appleworks GS. It seems that the first line of
every printout comes out scrunched.
I also noticed that in GS/OS, which is the corresponding operating system, a
driver titled "Imagewriter", instead of "Imagewriter.BW" is being used. Could t
his be the source of the problem?? Any help would be appreciated.

This is a driver Kevin Harvey modified for speed at the expense of memory when we were at StyleWare. That driver has some problems under GS/OS. Use the driver ImageWriter.CL, which is built from the same source as ImageWriter, but with some bug-fixes & very minor modifications. The problem of text getting 'scrunched' sounds like a problem with the printer itself... do you have this problem with any other module but DB? Do you have an extra sheet of paper already fed through the printer? (somtimes if the printer is right at the top of the first page, it jams a little & could cause the symptom you describe.) -- Scott Lindsey, wombat | UUCP: {ames,apple,portal,sun,voder}!claris!scott Product Development | Internet: scott@claris.com | AppleLink: LINDSEY1 Claris Corp. | Disclaimer: These are not the opinions of Claris, (415) 960-4070 | Apple, the author, or anyone else living or dead.
