We have a DataProducts LZR1260 PostScript printer that appears to
print correctly from XyWrite Plus and from Quattro.  Anything printed
from a Windows 3.0 application, e.g. Write, CorelDRAW, Paintbrush, WinWord
etc is stretched vertically.

Has anyone else struck this problem?  Is the original Win 3.0 PSCRIPT.DRV
driver faulty?

Is the printer (this unit only) faulty -- it was mainly used in the HP
LaserJet+ emulation mode before, where we used to load it with soft fonts.
They could be used by only one print job--the next job would just not see
the soft fonts.
