1.  17CPI
2.  8x11 with page rotation set to *AUTO
4.  Yes, it rotated 90 degrees.
5.  Looks like 17cpi with rotation.  
6.  Legal not available

Left margin is .5", right margin is .25".
17cpi * (11-(.5+.25)) = 174.25 characters on a page.

Hmmm,
20cpi * (11 - (.5 +.25)) = 205 characters.  Maybe I 
ought to try that.
Well that didn't make a rat's bit of a difference.  
Still looks like 17cpi.

Page rotation set to 90 seems to fit, however it becomes 
double spaced.  Again, it was already rotating, but now 
it fits, but double spaces.  Also the left margin changed
to 3/16".

Any clues on the double spacing?

A couple of things to check:

1. What CPI is it actually printing out ?? 10,12,15,etc,etc

2. Are you trying to print this on 8x11 COR ??? or legal size

3. You can print 198 on 8x11 but the font is gonna be "real" small,
   such as 18cpi(fairly hard to read).

4. Is the form even trying to rotate ???

5. From the sound of things, it appears that you are getting 10cpi 
   with rotation... Is that correct ??

6. Got a legal drawer on this printer ??? If so, try to print to
   legal and see the results.
