HELP PLEASE!!
I just bought an Atari 1040 ST and hooked up my ancient
Epson MX100. Everything works fine on it (1st Word, print
files) but when I press ALT-HELP to dump the screen, I get
strange results. It prints the graphics ok, but for each
line of graphics it also prints 3 blank lines in between.
Can somebody give me a clue as to what I need to do. I've
configured the "install printer" accessory correctly (not
much choice in that) and I've set the dipswitch 2-3 to "on"
instead of off. The switches were the same as from factory
otherwise but that still doesn't help. And as some may know,
the manual for this printer is far from good.
Can anyone help me. How about Neil? How about Epson? Are you
listening/watching?
Thanks in advance,
Alan Davis
