ImageWriter LQ questions

We have just recently obtained an ImageWriter LQ and have some questions.

1) Only the fonts supplied with the printer (Courier, Symbol, Times, and
Helvetica) print out with the correct spacing. We have several PD fonts
with lots of sizes, so not have 3x the printed size is not the problem.
Words print over each other, or spaces between words are too wide. Anyone
have a workaround/fix for this? Is there a dip switch we can change? which
brings us to the next question...

2) In the IW LQ manual appendix, it lists dip switch settings for a variety
of configurations, but it doesn't list precisely what each switch does. Does
anyone know this information, or can you direct me to a source? Thanks.
