I am using an Oki 192+ with my XT.  It is borrowed so I don't have the manual
but it has been set to an IBM graphics mode.  This allows me to print graphics.
So long as I stipulate IBM graphics when loading printer drivers I have no 
problem.

I mentioned not having the manual so as to inform you that I do not know what
the switch setting should be to select IBM graphics mode.  There is an access
hatch at thje top rear center of the unit.  Open this and you will see
a number of dip switches.  If you have the manual you should have no trouble
setting these accordingly.
