Delete your font summary file. The font information for this version of the driver has changed, therefore, it is necessary to delete the font summary file. Note: the font summary file is usually located in the Windows directory and the nomenclature is FS5LPT1.PCL (where LPT1 represents the port name). You will have a different font summary file for every port installed and need to delete all occurrences of the font summary file. If the font summary file does not appear in the Windows directory it can be located by looking in the win.ini file under the heading FontSummary=. Part 2: 1. Start Windows 3.0. 2. Choose Control Panel from the Main Group in Program Manager. The Control Panel window appears. 3. Choose the Printers icon from the Control Panel window. The Printers dialog box appears. 4.
