- OK ... Charlie, try these settings IF you are using continuous paper!
-
- Page Setup: 'custom', '8.5', '11.0', 'tall', 'right only' pages,
- 'continuous', left margin= '0.25', right margin= '0.25', top
- margin='0', bottom margin= '0'.
-
- Section Setup: LayOut ... top='1.0', bottom='1.0', inside='1.0',
- outside='1.0', header='0', footer='0',display on all
- pages,columns='1'.
-
- I use this with a 24 pin Panasonic printer with Wolfe Fausts'
- PanaPrefs Driver setup.

- This is correct! Also, when you go to print, check these settings:
-
- Settings='graphic', print section='main', paper='all', collate='all',
- order='front to back', print to:='graphic(final)', paper feed=
- 'continuous'.
-
- These settings all work to print just fine for me and my kids on the
- above printer. I have an A3000/25 with 2.1 OS and FW 4.01 ...

- Someone, a long time ago, walked me thru this and gave me all these
- settings way back with FC or maybe the original FW2-3? I have never
- changed them cause they work.
