Windows Printing Requires Generic / Text Only Printer Driver

This form prints in text mode.  This requires use of the Generic / Text Only printer driver to ensure correct alignment.

If you do not already have a Generic / Text Only printer driver installed, you can do so as follows.  Click Windows Start, then Settings, then Printers, then Add Printer.  After indicating whether the printer is to be a local or network printer, you can then select a Manufacturer.  Click on Generic.  In the Printers list box you will see Generic / Text Only as the only listing.  Click Next and finish answering the rest of the prompts.

When you print the form, after selecting the Printer option, your default printer is displayed.  To change to the Generic / Text Only printer, click Select.  In the Printer Name field click the lookup arrow and select the Generic / Text Only printer.  The Paper Size should be set to Letter 8 ?x 11 in and the Paper Source should be set to Continuous – Page Break.  Click Ok and proceed with printing.

If vertical alignment is not correct, make sure your laser printer is set for 60 lines per page.  If you do not get a form feed after the first form prints, make sure when you select the Generic / Text Only printer that its Paper Source setting is Continuous ?Page Break.
