But, with foreign charaters there is one problem. Either they become garbled up in the printer (or within the driver for all I know) or they are just replaced by a "." At work we use Star printers (LC10 and LC24-10). They function well with all software packages (including windows) but refuse to print the norwegian "o+/" (o with a slash) and replaces it with the infamous "." To make a long story short, can anybody help me ? I've tried epson and other drivers without success. ************************************************************************ **** * RODRIGO LOPEZ SERRANO Biotechnology Centre of Oslo * * Tel: xx-02-958766 Gaustadalleen 21 * * Fax: xx-02-694130 P.B. 1125 Blindern * * rodrigo.lopez@use.uio.no 0316 Oslo 3 Norway * * rodrigo.lopez%use.uio.uninett@nac.no * * rodrigol@ulrik.uio.no * ************************************************************************ ****
