Does anybody know why the Epson Preferences driver gives a line feed initially before printing any text when the PRT: device is used? Is this a bug in the printer driver or in the PRT: device itself? The problem with this bug is that once the printer is finished printing, the print head advances one line past the top of page position. I would appreciate some advice on how to get rid of this problem. I have both the Lattice-C compiler and Macro Assembler. I would like to get rid of this bug in the Epson LQ-800 driver that I uploaded to DL 6. Any advice would be much appreciated! — Fred —
