SYMPTOMS
When you switch between a LaserMaster WinJet 300 and a WinJet 800, you receive the following printer error message:

WinPrint Manager

Printer Error: VPD cannot register frame buffer

Other error messages are then displayed.



CAUSE
If you switch between a LaserMaster WinJet 300 and a WinJet 800 must manually edit the SYSTEM.INI file. The printer errors occur if you fail to do this.



WinJet 300
The WinJet 300 installation adds the following lines to the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file:   device=LMLPV.386 ;WinPrint device=LMCAP.386 ;WinPrint device=LMMI.386 ;WinPrint When you install a WinJet 300 over an existing WinJet 800, the installation process does not remove the line (device=LMHAROLD.386 ;WinPrint). You must do this manually, as follows:  Make a backup copy of your SYSTEM.INI by copying the file to SYSTEM.BAK. Open the SYSTEM.INI in a text editor (NOTEPAD.EXE).  Place a semicolon in front of the device=LMHAROLD.386 line in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file.

The line should appear as in the sample below:      [386Enh] device=LMLPV.386 ;WinPrint ;device=LMHAROLD.386 ;WinPrint device=LMCAP.386 ;WinPrint device=LMMI.386 ;WinPrint 

WinJet 800

You must do this manually as follows:  Make a backup copy of your SYSTEM.INI by copying the file to SYSTEM.BAK.</li> Open the SYSTEM.INI in a text editor (NOTEPAD.EXE).</li>  Place a semicolon in front of the device=LMLPV.386 line in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI.

The line should appear as in the sample below: <pre class="fixed_text">     [386Enh] ;device=LMLPV.386 ;WinPrint device=LMHAROLD.386 ;WinPrint device=LMCAP.386 ;WinPrint device=LMMI.386 ;WinPrint </li></ol>
