Title: Ubuntu dosemu wordstar 5.5 samsung scx 4521F printing
Post by: jsowden on August 18, 2013, 12:45:57 PM
I am trying to print, using Wordstar 5.5 in dosemu under ubuntu 13.04.  The printer responds, but does not print.  I tried using an ascii editor under dosemu and got the same results.
Is samsung spl compatible with hp pcl? (pssst the editor should not show wordstar as misspelled, especially on a wordstar site.

I can't help with your printing question, but I can help with the spelling. The word list comes from your system. However, as you alerted me to the problem I've installed a custom dictionary and added WordStar to it, so hopefully it won't show as incorrect again. I can't test it because it didn't show up as incorrect for me anyway, but the update will add WordStar as a possible correction if what you type isn't recognised as a known word.

Thanks for the pointer.
