The wrong fonts are printed
z Make sure that fonts are used correctly in the document
Make sure you correctly apply the font you want to use.
For example, in a graphics application, place the words in the
desired size; do not enlarge by dragging and sizing.
z Make sure the font is available in your computer
The fonts used in the document might not match the fonts
currently available in your computer or the type of font used is
not designed to be printed. Make sure the font is available in your
software application font selection box, and make sure it is a
TrueType™ font.
TrueType is a technology that can create fonts of any sizes from a
basic font outline. TrueType fonts are scalable. They can be scaled
at any time for use on the computer screen or the printer. This is the
standard font-scaling technology in Windows.
z The wrong printer driver is selected
Make sure your printer is selected as the current or default printer.
For information about setting the default printer, see the online Help
for your computer’s operating system.
z The software application is conflicting with the printer
The problem is likely a conflict related to the software application
you are using. Contact the manufacturer of your software for help.
On the Starter CD, see the readme file for a list of known conflicts
with popular software applications.
Text is jagged at the edges
z Make sure the correct type of font has been chosen
Some software applications offer custom fonts or use bitmap
images of text that have jagged edges when skewed, enlarged, or
printed. By using TrueType fonts, you can ensure that the printer is
able to print smooth fonts. When selecting a font, look for the
TrueType icon.
