TOPIC


    I have a PC Compatibility Card in my Power Macintosh computer. When I print to my QuickDraw printer from the PC side, text near the top and bottom of each page doesn't print or is cut off, or text that should print at the bottom of one page prints on the next page.


DISCUSSION


    Try choosing "No gaps between pages" in the PC Print Spooler Preferences dialog box, then print again. When you print after choosing this option, the PC Print Spooler software prints 66 lines per page instead of 60 lines per page.


    Steps to Select No Gaps Between Pages
    =====================================

    Step 1
    ------
    Go to Extensions folder in System Folder

    Step 2
    ------
    Double-click PC Print Spooler

    Step 3
    ------
    Go to the File menu and select Preferences

    Step 4
    ------
    Select "No gaps between Pages"

    Step 5
    ------
    Click OK


    If "No gaps between pages" is selected in the PC Print Spooler Preferences dialog box, but text near the top and bottom of each page still does not print or is cut off, find out the minimum margins for your printer. Most laser and ink jet printers cannot print close to the edges of a page. Then set the top and bottom margins to at least these amounts in the DOS or Windows application you are using.
