It prints but the font it uses has something wrong with its character spacing so all the characters overlap to some extent making it impossible to read. Also some characters seem to missing entirely. Not being familar with PS formats, is there anyway I can simply force a more suitable font to be used via Windows on my LJII or LJII?
