I've had the same problem with NEC drivers for Windows 3. The driver that
came with Windows 3 did not handle A4 sized paper properly, so NEC was
contacted and they sent us a newer driver, version 1.37.
This newer version does page sizing correctly, but stuffs up when it comes
to handling bold faced/italicised text. By stuffs up, I mean to say that text
flows over the right hand margin quite considerably. Not nice at all.
I've given up trying to get our NEC printers to work correctly with A4 paper.
I suspect that NEC have given up too, if they can't ship a printer driver
that works.
cheers all
