I'm having problems with Microsoft Word V5.0 and Windows 3.0, in that I'm running two 286's through a data transfer switch. Now while other applications such as Harvard graphics and MS-Works prints Ok, both MS-Word and Windows(write) applications complain that the printer is not ready, yet when I bypass the data switch everything is ok. Has anyone else experienced such problems, got any ideas?? Thanks Michael ***************************************************************** Michael Andrew Wirth Technical Advisor Computing Studies Duval College University of New England _--_|\ Armidale N.S.W 2351 / \ A U S T R A L I A. \_.--._/ v FTP: (ftp 129.180.1.1) ARPA: mwirth@gara.une.oz.au@uunet.uu.net ACSnet: mwirth@gara.une.oz Phone: (067) 73-2670 (term) Internet: mwirth@gara.une.oz.au (075) 35-0775 (home) *****************************************************************
