NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Macintosh) V1.3 on OpenVMS
VAX V5.5-2 or greater and OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 or greater.
Problems addressed in the MSAP_E01013 kit:
o Fixed error messages when printing from Windows 95.
Messages sent by the printer are parsed to see if they are status,
errors, or user data. All status or error messages start with the
characters "%%[". The symbiont assumed that these were never user
data. The Windows 95 driver produces PostScript which sends back
%%[ Page: 1 ]%% and %%[ LastPage ]%%. The symbiont thought these
were errors.
Treat messages which do not have a known keyword following the %%[
as user data.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The system/cluster does not need to be rebooted after this kit is
installed. However, the Print Server must be shutdown and restarted
using the following commands
ADMIN/MSA STOP PRINTER/ALL
ADMIN/MSA START PRINTER/ALL
in order for all kit changes to take effect.
NOTE: If you do not wish to restart the servers at the time of the
installation, it will automatically occur the next time the
system is rebooted.
