[comp.periphs.printers] Fujitsu DL 3400 and cut sheet feeder: HELP!

butler@concour.cs.concordia.ca (BUTLER brenda) (06/03/91)

I have the above mentioned equipment.  I have a problem sending
printouts to the printer.  WordPerfect seems to put form-feeds
into the print file, and the paper advances 11 inches.  However,
when using the cut sheet feeder, each sheet overlaps the next
one by one inch, so a formfeed which advances the paper 11 inches
goes one inch further down each successive page.  I have tried
defining a paper type with 10 inches, but the problem persists.

I looked in my printer manual, and it doesn't seem to have any
way to set the page length to 10 inches.  There are pre-determined
page length settings of 11, 11.6, 12, 14, 18, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 5.5
6, 7, 8, and 8.5 inches.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get WordPerfect and my
cut-sheet feeder to work together properly?

PS, I did go into the printer setup menu and set the "Feeder" item
of the "Hardware"
menu to single-bin, and I selected the Fujitsu DL3400 printer with
mechanical sheet feeder from the WordPerfect printer selection menu.
