If the JTFAX memory resident software and QUIKBUF2 are loaded, incoming and outgoing FAXes are corrupted. {JTFAX 4800 external (serial link) fax} C. ITOH 310 This printer has 3 modes - the ship configuration is Mode 1 which doesn't work with print buffers. Change to Mode 2 and it should work fine. It isn't known if all C. ITOH printers have multiple modes. HP LASERJET PLUS AND QUIKBUF QUIKBUF supports the HP LaserJet Plus as a serial printer. Use the S1 parameter. Intel does not recommend using QUIKBUF with the parallel port version of the LaserJet, they are very slow together. IBM MODEL 30 AND QUIKBUF Earlier versions of Quikbuf cause keyboard lockups in the Model 30. EMM 4.0 Rev A diskettes or later have a new Quikbuf that eliminates this problem. IBM XT & 101 KEYBOARD If the IBM-XT has an upgrade BIOS to use the 101 keyboard, the system will lock if any other key than 1-7 (for the menu items) is pressed when using Quikbuf. A cold boot is then necessary. IBM 3270 PC & QUIKBUF Put Quikbuf AFTER 3270 control programs in Autoexec.bat file. IBM 5128 SERIAL PRINTER AND QUIKBUF This printer needs a special IBM driver for PC use. This driver is incompatible with most PC print buffer software including QUIKBUF. IBM 5250 AND QUIKBUF The 5250 'System 36 printer emulation' won't work with QUIKBUF installed. IBM EGA & QUIKBUF With QUIKBUF software that shipped with EMM versions earlier than 4.0, it will be necessary to disable the QUIKBUF pop-up menu when using an EGA Adapter. (Put `o' in quikbuf command line.). With QUIKBUF software that shipped with versions 4.0 and higher, a parameter was added so the pop-up menu can be supported, (put an "e" on the command line). IBM VGA GRAPHICS BOARD & QUIKBUF The IBM VGA graphics board provides the VGA graphics standard from the PS-2 line to AT's and PC's. For QUIKBUF software shipped with 4.0C (or later) EMM.SYS drivers, choose the VGA option for the QUIKBUF pop-up menu. For older software (that doens't show a VGA option) choose the EGA option. For the extremely old software that doesn't even have an EGA option, choose "Other", this will allow the print buffer to work, but there won't be access to the pop-up menu. PLOTTERS AND QUIKBUF Quikbuf is designed to buffer output to conventional printers. Because the timing loops in plotters are so different from printers, Quikbuf is unlikely to provide buffering to plotters. QUADBOARD AND QUIKBUF2 The Quadboard parallel port conflicts with the Intel Quikbuf2 print buffer. Quikbuf2 will not work if a Quadboard is present in a system. This is true even if Quikbuf2 is printing through another parallel port. Quadram has an expanded memory print buffer that does work with their port and our EMM. SPERRY PC-PCHT & QUIKBUF May not be able to format diskettes when quikbuf is installed. We suggest that customers format several diskettes in advance so they won't need to use the format command very often. When they need to format diskettes they can rename their AUTOEXEC.BAT file (this will prevent quikbuf from being loaded), reboot their system to remove quikbuf, format several diskettes, then change their renamed autoexec back to its original name and boot again to return to normal operation. TANDY 3000 & QUIKBUF2 Cannot format diskettes in 1.2M disk drive when QUIKBUF2 is installed.
