I have some forms on papers;they have boxes to fill in.
How can i print them with a matrix printer?
Can i fill in the access forms, save them in a .txt files and then send it
to the printer?
The problem is that the printer works very slow

Someone has any idea?

Thanks for your help

You need to use the fonts specific to the printer that are not Windows
fonts. Windows fonts can generally be recognized by being True Type
fonts and having an overlapping TT in the font drop down list when you
have clicked on the control on the report.. Look for font names such
as Courier. There are generally one or two more but I forget now what
there names are.

Also you may need to install the printer driver on your system to see
those fonts. Even though you aren't actually hooked up to that
printer.

That said, as Mike suggests, two copies on a laser printer are much
more convenient.
