My WordStar 4.0 upgrade arrived ahead of promised delivery date and it is a major improvement. However, I am having a problem with printer handshaking. Under WS 3.3 there was a driver specific for my printer, Diablo 1640, and that driver with "no protocol" handshaking worked fine with the printer connected to com1. WS 4.0 has a generic Diablo driver and handshaking options that are not identified as "no protocol". Using that driver and simplest handshaking option things 'almost' work, but there are frequent "overflow" problems, and not always in the same place in the text. Anyone solved a similar problem? The documentation that came with the upgrade is excellent, but no where can I find the MicroPro support phone number. Please e-mail it to me if you have it.
