  Hello windows users,

 Is anyone else out there having problems with the NEC 24 pin printer
driver that ships with Windows 3.0?

  I'm having problems getting the thing to correctly print A4 size paper.
It seems that its definition of A4 is too long. Microsoft, of course, have
been their usual helpful selves on this one.

  Anyone know a fix for this, be it a binary hacked-in patch or replacement
drivers? I've checked the supplemental driver libraries, but there is no
update to be found.

  Any help or information about others suffering the same problems is
welcome at the following email address.

  cheers
