Summary:

If you are printing from Microsoft Multiplan version 4.00 to an Epson LX or IBM Wheel Printer using EPSONLX.PRD or IBMWHEEL.PRD, the error message “Cannot load driver” may appear when the Print Printer command is executed. No printout will occur or a few lines of text may print, then printing will cease and the error message “Printer Not Ready” may appear. Pressing Y to retry printing will have no effect.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Multiplan version 4.00. This problem was corrected in Multiplan version 4.20.
