Whenever the NEC P6 is used to print graphics intented for Epson FX,
MX, or LX printers, the result would be about 1 inch longer per page
than normal.  Is there a way to fix this?

Example: when I use the NEC P6 to print graphics using Lotus Freelance
the result is 12 inches long, instead of the normal 11 inches.

The NEC manual stated that it can emulate the LQ (it can with no
problems, the p is that there are a lot of software that doesn't
support the LQ), FX, MX, and LX but I have had no luck...

Is there a way to patch it to work with printshop, freelance, etc...

NOTE: the P6 is a Epson LQ1500 compatible printer.

Thanks
Charles
