Obtaining Bold Characters with Okidata 92 and 192 Printers

= SUMMARY =

To obtain bold fonts on an Okidata 92 or an Okidata 192 using the Okidata 92 printer driver, OKI92.PRD, it is necessary to modify the Word 5.00 printer driver. Use MAKEPRD.EXE to modify the following lines of OKI92.PRD:

byte:128 mod:0 “^H” byte:132 mod:0 “^I”

The lines should read as follows:

byte:128 mod:2 byte:132 mod:0

This change causes Word to issue a carriage return pass for bold printing instead of sending an escape sequence for enhanced printing.
