Well can any one help me, I have a second hand Deskjet to evaluate,
but things don't look right..

If I use Script to print out ver 1.0 , it looks a bit fuzzy, dots that
should not be there, even happends in Epson mode as well, with the correct
printer driver, this error is repeatable 100% and is not random like
a faulty print head...

Could this be a Script fault..??

If I try the built in test, the text looks clean, but the top parts of the 
letters are lighter than the bottom, this is on every line of text...


What program can I use that supports this printer with its built font
and with external fonts, like what Script does...

Or is it correct that these printers don't work to well with the ST range
of computers..??
