When I print legal-size documents to LaserWriter Pro 630 with Windows 3.1, it will not print the top three inches of the page. What causes this?
DISCUSSION By default, the printer assumes that any paper in the multipurpose/manual feed tray is letter size. When a document is printed, it is cropped to letter size and omits three inches of the document. You need to use the Apple LaserWriter Utility for Windows to change the default paper handling setting. If you have an early version of the Windows 3.1 software for the LaserWriter 630, you may not have the Apple LaserWriter Utility for Windows. If you do not have it, you should download a newer version of the software from Apple. Alternatively, below are the PostScript code segments to configure the multipurpose tray for letter, legal, A4 and B5 paper sizes. Once downloaded to the printer, this code will remain in effect even after the power is cycled. The specific code segment to be used should be saved as a text file, and then downloaded using the COPY command: COPY B:\TEXTFILENAME LPT1: [Enter] where B is the drive name where the text file is located and where TEXTFILENAME is the name of the text file. ======================================== MULTIPURPOSE TRAY DEFAULT: LETTER ---------------------------------------- %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: Apple Computer, Inc. %%Copyright 1992 Apple Computer, Inc. % Set multi-purpose tray default paper size to Letter serverdict begin 0 exitserver <</InputAttributes << 1 << /PageSize [612 792] >> >> >> setpagedevice ======================================== MULTIPURPOSE TRAY DEFAULT: LEGAL ---------------------------------------- %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: Apple Computer, Inc. %%Copyright 1992 Apple Computer, Inc. % Set multi-purpose tray default paper size to Legal serverdict begin 0 exitserver <</InputAttributes << 1 << /PageSize [612 1008] >> >> >> setpagedevice ? ======================================== MULTIPURPOSE TRAY DEFAULT: A4 ---------------------------------------- %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: Apple Computer, Inc. %%Copyright 1992 Apple Computer, Inc. % Set multi-purpose tray default paper size to A4 serverdict begin 0 exitserver <</InputAttributes << 1 << /PageSize [595 842] >> >> >> setpagedevice ? ======================================== MULTIPURPOSE TRAY DEFAULT: B5 ---------------------------------------- %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%Creator: Apple Computer, Inc. %%Copyright 1992 Apple Computer, Inc. % Set multi-purpose tray default paper size to B5 serverdict begin 0 exitserver <</InputAttributes << 1 << /PageSize [516 729] >> >> >> setpagedevice ?==================================== |
