34778 2002-02-07 08:27:00 I have a 4086 with an NEC pinwriter P5200. It has always printed from Word etc with no problems. However I have recently joined the Internet and when I print from this (or a recently acquired Encarta CD-ROM) there are vertical black lines at the end of each line of print.
?why
? I can do anything about this.

34779 2002-02-09 02:59:00 Mmm. Try 'printing' to a file, then using Word to print it.

This 'black line' ... is this a straight line down the righthand side?, both sides?, ragged line of bars after the last character of each line?
Are characters missing at the end of printed lines?
I thought for a moment it might be the graphics rendering of the linefeed control character, but that should not be printed -- it would give you double spacing if the printer is set to 'Auto LF on CR'.

Need more information ... Operating system, browser.

The Pinwriter is a nice printer; if it works in Windows, it ought to behave itself in a browser under Windows, and also with Encarta.

Puzzling, so far.

The line was a straight dark line at the end of each line of print about the height of a capital letter. If the article/letter was short, the line continued down the page on the left side margin.
I use Internet Explorer. It didn't matter which search engine I used, the lines were always present. There was never any problem with characters or spacing.
