A friend has been given a Panasonic KXP1081 printer that had been used
with an Apple Mac.  I removed the optional serial port kit to turn the
printer back into a parallel printer.

The printer works fine with text files, and from WP 5.1 provided its
configured as a DOS text printer.  It prints control codes and messes up
margins etc when using the KXP1081 driver that comes with WP.

I suspect that the printer's DIP switches may need to be reset.

If anyone is using a KXP1081 with a DOS machine could they please send me
their DIP switch settings?

Many thanks
