I would start by opening the font with another program, to make sure it is
not a bug. I would suggest Softy, an excellent Windows shareware font
editor. I placed a link to the author's page on the site below.

Then, you may want to visit the HP site. They had in the past a great
utility to download FNT fonts to a printer, and test them out.
