            (See the next section "Enabling WYSIWYG" for instructions.)

            Install the HP LaserJet series text printer driver if you
            plan to use setup strings or print multiple ranges on a
            page; and install the LaserJet III, IIID, and IIIP graphics
            printer driver if you plan to use the Lotus 1-2-3 PrintGraph
            feature.  See your Lotus 1-2-3 release 2.3/2.4 user's
            documentation for information about how to install these
            drivers.
