The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q87446 SYMPTOMS
If you use IBM Quickwriter 5204 printer driver version 1.0 supplied with
Microsoft Windows version 3.1, the driver does not print correctly when the
Paper Size setting in Control Panel printer setup is set to US Standard
Fanfold 14 7/8 x 11 inch. Windows-based applications print only halfway
across the page. Nothing is printed on the right side of the page.
Instead of wrapping or continuing to the next line, the driver omits all
printing that would normally extend beyond the middle of the page. Although
the page is 14 7/8 inches wide, the output contains text only on the left
half of the page.
NOTE: Applications that have print preview capability also display a
print area of only half a page.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 1.0 of this driver
included with Windows 3.1. The problem was corrected in version 1.1 of the
driver.
MORE INFORMATION
No emulation for the IBM 5204 printer will support US Standard Fanfold
size paper.
