Hi there!

I have problems using my DeskJet plus with the new Windows 3.

1. problem:

   All print output is 0.3 mm below and 0.3 mm left to the point
   it should go. I.e. if I try to print some text or graphics at
   position (10 mm, 10 mm), it gets printed at pos (7 mm, 13 mm).

   Perhaps the author of the printer driver tried to adjust the
   printing position on the page and exchanged the coordinates
   by mistake?

2. problem:

   I tried to print a file, using the DeskJet with the printer
   drive configured to landscape. It worked, but the output
   came out in graphics mode, using the script vector font. This
   is not exactly what I want.

   The printing from the file manager leaves something to be
   desired.
