I seem to have a serious problem when printing on a DMP2100P using WINDOWS/386 on a Tandy 4000. The printer is set to IBM emulation and I selected the IBM Graphics printer driver. The output is just an endless row of 6s or Qs. Even if I select the Generic/Text only printer driver, the result is the same. Needless to say, I have not experienced anything similar with any other program. The printer worked fine with Windows 1.x using another computer. A call to Microsoft produced no results. A call to Tandy produced a promise to call back with an answer, which did not materialize. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Luis M. Garcia-Barrio

I have the EXACT same problem running Windows 2.03 on my Tandy 1000SX and
a Tandy DMP430 printer. Oddly, it works fine on a Tandy 3000NL w/ DMP440. I
have to experiment switching printers around to see if the problem is in
the printer or the computer.
