The switches were in the CR=CR/LF position. I changed it to CR=CR. (I already had LF=LF, but yours may have LF=CR/LF as a lot of Tandy printers were setup that way) As for graphics, if you get a copy of Tandy's MS-DOS, install LF.COM and GRAPHICS.COM in the AUTOEXEC and you can dump graphics screens to your printer. -- Leonard Erickson ...!tektronix!reed!percival!bucket!leonard CIS: [70465,203] "I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools.
