RE: Question on IBM 4230 printer setup

[Ruth <ruthm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I only tried printing source listings as a test.  Also program reports

Any ideas of where else I could search?  Could it be a hardware problem
that needs some little "tweeking"?  I only received a users manual with it
when purchased.
Thanks for your effort.
