SUMMARY
=======
If you use a Microsoft Windows 3.0 printer driver that uses the GENLIB.DLL file,
general protection (GP) faults or Divide Overflow messages may occur in Windows
3.1 when you print from a Windows-based application.
The default number of copies for printing may intermittently change to as high as
several thousand.
RESOLUTION
==========
To correct the problem, delete the old GENLIB.DLL file and the corresponding
driver (.DRV) file and install a Windows 3.1 printer driver by using the Control
Panel, Printers option.
