Printing from windows using the default printer font, the left several characters of my printout (a dump of a text file) get chopped off a little more than a half inch from the left edge of the paper. I can see small pieces of the right edge of the cut off char(s). Any ideas on a fix? Other (formatted) print jobs appear to be OK.

It is my experience that it only happens in "Write" and "Notepad". Win95 uses "Wordpad", and the text is NOT cropped on the left side. Would appreciate receipt of any positive information you receive. Good luck (for you and for me) <g> Anne [15-May-95 – 18:30:58]

re: "…the left several characters of my printout…get chopped off a little more than a half inch from the left edge of the paper. I can see small pieces of the right edge of the cut off char(s)." Steven and Anne, have you double-checked your margins? If you try printing in the unprintable portion of the page, you'll get just what you describe. Take a ruler and measure the margin that you describe. Don Morris Advanced Toner Service
