- Ok folks, can you give me some suggestions about this problem,
-
- A friend has an A5000 with RO 3.0 and is using an Epson LQ500
- printer. Now Acorn don't supply an LQ500 printer driver so she
- is using the LQ850 dirver instead. There are no problems with
- graphics printing (stuff from Impression/Draw/anyting of that
- sort) however text printing does not work. After every line
- printed a from-feed is done.
-
- Has anyone encountered this/found an answer? I would assume that
- some printer codes are changed between models but this would
- surprise me (I'm easily surprised). I've looked at the various
- codes using PrinterEdit (or whatever its called) and they seem
- ok.
-
- A reply through email would be nice since I won't be reading
- any news for a week or two soon (Merry Christmas everyone).
-
- Graham Jones. (graham@uk.ac.ox.robots)
