Subject: Worstar/4 printer help

Got a problem with printer overlay and RAM.

My copy of Wordstar CPM Version 4 arrived a couple days ago and I agree with
the reviews seen here -- looks like a winner.  A lot of the public domain
auxiliary programs like indexing, table of contents, ascii'fying, etc
got rolled up into the main program.  Footnoting does seem to have been
left out though.  O well, this is a word processor, not yet a desktop
publisher.

Anyway, to my problem.  
Hardware: AMPRO Little Board running ZCPR3.  Printer is a Daisywriter
which is a clone of diablo/qume/NEC daisy wheels (can emulate any of
them by DIP switches.)

Specific problem.  With the installed printer driver (any of the choices)
I get a 'Can't use that printer.  Incorrect name or not enough memory.'
error.  The optional printer drivers (e.g. DRAFT) work ok.  

It appears that I probably have a collision in RAM between some o the ZCPR
stuff and the printer driver, but I'm not yet sure.  Anyway, I tried
the memory squeeze trick to no avail (in WSCHANGE).  

Anybody got ideas or cures?  The book solution isn't much help....
