There seems to be a bug in the HP DeskJet driver that comes with
Windows 3.0. When I try to print Finnish characters like A:s or O:s
with the funny little dots on them they appear as black boxes on the
paper. This happens only with the built-in Courier font, all font
cartridges and soft fonts that we have tried work fine.

Any solutions? Hewlett-Packard Finland hasn't got Windows 3.0 yet...
(They also dont have any Macs, even though they have sold thousands of
DeskWriters already. Marvelous support :-( )
