This is expected. It's not a eCS/OS2 printer driver. It's either a DOS
or Windows printer driver, depending on which Wordperfect you are using.
Install driver under MDOS or WinOS2, as appropriate. Then install either
the Null printer driver or the OMNI driver under eCS/OS2. The DOS/Windows
driver will generate printer specific output and the eCS/OS2 driver will
pass this through, as is, to the printer.
