HP ThinkJet Fonts Split Characters Over Two Lines

ID: Q66421

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

SYMPTOMS

Output obtained from the Hewlett-Packard (HP) ThinkJet may split characters so that the top half of the font and bottom half of the font do not line up.

CAUSE

The ThinkJet prints the top half of the font on one printer pass, then prints the bottom half of the font on the second pass. If the dip switch is set to #2=down and #5=up, the printer doesn't add a carriage return to a linefeed.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, set dip switches on ThinkJet. The eight switches from left to right should be in the following configuration:


   #1,#2,#3,#4 = down     #5,#6 = up    #7,#8 = down
