[comp.periphs] Fujitsu 24xx & AT&T 477 printers with MS Windows/386 R2.1

hsc@mtund.ATT.COM (Harvey Cohen) (10/15/88)

I just upgraded to MS Windows/386 R2.1, and the Fujitsu 24xx/AT&T 477
driver started eating up so much memory that I couldn't use it.
This driver had previously been a tad flaky, but quite usable.
I called MS Tech. Support, and they told me that Fujitsu supplied
MS with an untested driver.  MS is expecting a fix from Fujitsu
and will test it themselves.  Meanwhile, the workaround is to
invoke Windows/386 with
	C> WIN386 /N
If and when I get the fixed driver, I'll post a note about it.
