Master Key Plus

Installation Hints

Windows 95: Window does not close automatically after exiting program.

Start MKPLUS inside a Windows 95 DOS box, as you normally would.

Move your mouse to the DOS icon next to the title bar which says Master Key Plus, and right click. A drop down box appears, and you should click on properties. Simply check the box that says close on exit. That should do it!

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME: Printer Not Ready .

Make sure you have installed the DOS emulation drivers for your specific printer. Master Key Plus needs nothing special to print. It prints to LPT1 printer port. If you are using a network in Windows 95 you may need to capture the printer port. Contact your network specialist.

After upgrading to Windows 98 in a Windows NT Network Environment, I also received the Printer Not Ready error message, and after several hours of testing I decided to remove my default printer, and reinstall using the Windows recommended defaults. You must click the box for DOS printing, and you should also capture LPT1 printer port. If installing or uninstalling your default printer is something you are not comfortable with, it is recommended you seek a professional IT person.

*** If you are having problems printing to various types of printers - you might try the following shareware program: DOS2USB . I tested this in an XP environment with a special program that outputs documents to a pdf file, and it worked fantastic. I have spoken with another user that tried it with success as well. It will also allow you to print in various sizes, fonts, and adjust margins. Let us know if you are using this program with MKPLUS, and if you experience any problems. sg 08/03/2006
