I realize that Printmaster and the like is a pretty elementary program.. so please don't laugh at me...but I have a shareware clone of Printmaster, AND Printmaster, and with both of them they print out cards that are longer than an 8x11.5 sheet of paper, the result being that there is a perf line running through the card. I've tried the different printer drivers, always with the same problem.. including the driver for my printer, and it's various modes <I hav a Panasonix KX-P1124>. Any suggestions? -- *----> WANTED!

Many (all?) 24-pin Epson compatible printers have this problem. Apparently, it doesn't emulate the 9-pin modes exactly. One possibility is to run a program before hand to adjust the line-feed length, but that might not work. Failing that, you'll just have to user another printer. --Joseph -- Joseph I.

On mine, I solved the problem by switcing from Epson LQ mode to IBM mode and telling Printmaster that I was running an IBM printer. No problem after that.
