SYMPTOM

GX mode does not work with HP LaserJet

ISSUE/PROBLEM

Glyphix has been tested with DR DOS 6.0 and "GX" mode does not work with
the HP LaserJet.

SOLUTION

If you are using a Hewlett-Packard Series II, IID, or IIIP, you should be
aware of the following restrictions:

GLYPHIX laser font package for WordPerfect 5.1 has three modes of
operation.  You can choose any of the three modes when starting the
application.  Two of the modes are successful with DR DOS.

It is recommended that you change to GXL or GXS to start Glyphix.  These
two modes run well under DR DOS.

GXL.EXE

This is the fastest mode, but it requires the most memory.  (use DR DOS's

memory features and this program should have plenty of room).  It takes
110K of memory and can print 3-120 point sizes.  It also allows background
printing.

GXS.EXE

The smaller memory version of GXL.EXE.  Allows you to print up to 60
point, and takes approximately 59K of memory.  It to allows background
printing.

GX.EXE

Requires about 26K of memory.  Also requires over 500K of disk space to
create a temp print file.  It does not work under DR DOS 6.0

The Hewlett-Packard Deskjet driver for Glyphix has no problems.
