That does it! It took me over an hour to perfect the month of April on my
calendar maker, thanks Lars, (if anybody wants the calendar maker, ask!) and
when I go to print it at 'BEST' quality it gets all these gaps and spaces bet-
ween mid-lines. I know how it prints at 'best', but it shouldn't HAVE that
option if it prints so awkward. Even on my reports, it does that. SO,
what I"m asking is:
CAN SOMEBODY recommend a low-cost printer that will do these and ONLY these
things flawlessly:
1. Print fonts WITHOUT ANY VISIBLE HORIZONTAL SPACES
2. Output has to look decent; better-than-Imagewriter-II.. (which is what
I have at the time..)
3. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR SPEED! I could care less how fast or slow a printer
is.. it's better than writing!
4. Hopefully not too many 'add-on's that are almost manditory (ie paper tray,
print head, - you'd be surprised what some manufacturers do to you!)
Is that too much to ask for? Maybe a DeskJet or something like that? I'm
pretty sick of X-Pin printers - I'd like to move on to laser or somesuch
similar device.
WHat do YOU recommend? (model and such). I'll take all input and price.
Thanks for your time!
