Re: Client Access question 5.3

It has been long enough since I set these up, my short-term memory may 
be messing with me.
There used to be a place to select the font to print with, the character 
size, like the File>Page Setup>
You had the options like you do now with CPI 10/12/15/17 (It may allow 
different options depending on
the printer capabilities.) I only see 10/12/17 LPI 2-8  Max Lines/Page  
Max Char/Line and Font selection
I thought I had to select an option, in this setup to allow it to print 
a character Image of the screen with no
underlines or bolds. It would never print colors. I know the setting 
controlled Underscore and Bold, and I
thought it also controlled Col Separators.

I found that by selecting Use PDT, I get the opportunity to select 
HPPCL5. Sending it with this setup, does
change the bold and underline on my printed output the way I want it to 
look. Thank you for the suggestion
thought I do appreciate it.
