[comp.sys.amiga] problem with Workbench 1.3 printer drivers -- solved

sdl@linus.UUCP (Steven D. Litvintchouk) (04/12/88)

A few days ago I posted a msg to this group that I was having trouble
with the Workbench 1.3 (gamma?) printer drivers I obtained from
ProWrite 2.0.  Namely, that Aegis Draw Plus gave a guru when
attempting to print with the new drivers.

Dave Berezowski (cbmvax!daveb) phoned me, and told me that the gamma
drivers were known to have the following bug (which has since been
fixed): A guru occurs when trying to print something bigger than a
single page, when antialiasing (or one of the other new options) is
turned ON.

And sure enough, either turning antialiasing OFF, or printing
something small enough to fit on a single page, caused printing to
work OK without a guru.

My apologies to all, for raising a false alarm....this bug has already
been found and fixed....
