Re[2]: XyW 4.12 / Windows95 bug (printing)

[Myron Gochnauer GOCH@xxxxxxxx]

Wolfgang Bechstein reminded me of the problems he and others were
having a few months ago with XyW 4.12 and faxes. The second and
subsequent pages came out black-on-medium-grey. I'm having the
same problem printing to a Laserjet in Windows95.

My video system is bottom-of-the-line. Ordinary VGA resolution
with a simple Trident card and a monochrome VGA monitor.

When Windows95 installed it came up with a different background
colour. I don't know what it is, but it's not as bright as the
Win 3.1 default. I took your suggestion and tried changing the
background to look like Win 3.1. On the little pop-up box of
colours I went to the bright white (?) in the upper left hand
corner (from the third choice to the right) for the desktop,
windows and application backgrounds.
That did it. Worked like a charm. Somehow XyWrite seems to be
picking up the background as something it should print, and when
it's not pure white it approximates it with grey. I would *think*
it would be relatively easy to make it "think" pure black and
white when it prints/faxes. But what do I know about
programming??? (Zip)
