Below is what option 8 shows.  Also, the actual DDS does go out to at
least 94 bytes wide.

Here's a quick guess...  Look at the PRTF or use OPT #8 while the job is
in the outq. Look for the Page Size parms.  The system 'knows' your 4224
is a wide carriage printer, and that the HP is a laser (read narrow
carriage id you will). I general terms, if the Page Width is over 80
characters, then the system forces a function called COR (computer
something reduction). This does 2 things typically, rotates the page to
landscape and goes to a small a font.

The maybe just changing the printfile from it's default of 132 wide to
80 wide 'may' fix the problem. There are other ways to fix it if that
doesn't do it.

Printing confusion







Greetings,

I'm confused (pretty normal state).  We currently print P.O.s on a 4224 
printer using a custom form.  Time to reorder forms, and now we would
like 
to buy cut sheet form and print these P.O.'s out on an HP LaserJet 
(configured via Client Access).  I tested this, and for whatever reason,

when the P.O. printed out on the laser, it was greatly condensed both 
horizontally and vertically?
