Thanks for the suggestion, Don. A couple of questions:
1. What is "Dot Perfect"? 2. I was told by a printer specialist that the
tractor feed option for the FX-80 was no longer available. One of the bigest
problems I have with the FX-80 (aside from not having near letter quality type)
is that, with continuous form paper, the paper wanders all over the place on
the printer. I can't use the printer for more than three pages or so without
having it wander on the platen. I really need a printer with tractor feed. 3.
One of the other problems I have is in printing out items on PageSetter and
other programs (Deluxe Paint II, etc.). Even if the "normal" white lines are
eliminated with the enhanced printer driver I downloaded from DL 11, I stillget
a mysterious occasional white line that runs (cont.) across the type. It is
not every line–just every so often. When I have run PageSetter as demos at my
computer store on other printers (the Star NX-1000
), it doesn't have those white lines appearing every so often. It's like the
printer (or computer) "hiccupped" and inserted an additional 1/64th of an inch
on my FX-80. If you have any practical suggestions, I'm open to any.
Thanks again===
