I am sure my problem is in the selected font.
However, I cannot seem to change the font type.
I can change the size of the font if I change my printer file to
use another font ID, .but it prints the same "font"
 and changing the font in the printer config screen seems
 to do nothing ( The letters have "feet" on them, the Q has the
 wavy tilde sticking out of it)
