I have a 1040ST and a Epson LX-80 printer.  It seems to translate character 
12 decimal into an endless series of form feeds.
When I try to print a document in 1st Word all I get are form feeds until
the paper runs out.  In WordWriter the first page prints followed by form
feeds until the paper runs out.  In Degas Elite the image prints out and is
also followed by many form feeds.  In STBasic sending character 12 decimal
should send a form feed.  On my system it sends form feeds until the paper
runs out.  Does anyone have any thoughts as to why this happens?  Or more
importantly does anyone know of a solution?  Please respond to me if possible.
Thank you.
