[DXBase] label printing problem.

2002年10月28日 07:56:22 -0500 (EST)

I am running dxbase 2003 on Windows 2000. I have an 
HP Deskjet 920c printer connected via USB. It prints 
fine, but when printing QSO labels, selecting 3 per label,
then selecting the included 8160-3Q.lbl definition, the 
first few rows of labels print fine. Then, by the time 
it gets to the bottom of the page it's cliping what should 
be printed at the top of each label and printing it on the 
bottom of the label above. In other words, it's almost like 
the labels are slightly larger than the definition expects, 
causing the top cross part of T's to be printed on the bottom 
of the label above it by the time you get to the last couple 
of rows. Makes "T's" look like "I's" when you peel the label!
However, using the exact same options, but printing to an HP 
Deskjet 950c printer through the network connected to another 
computer also running Windows 2000, they are aligned perfectly.
I also printed to plain paper on an HP6P laser and held them
up and compared, and they are aligned properly too. 
I'm using the Avery brand labels, so they should be OK.
It almost sounds like a font size issue or something....
Of course, it's inconvenient to run to the other printer all
of the time, so I bought the 920c specifically to use with 
dxbase on the computer in the shack.
Any suggestions how to cure that?
thanks!
