I am using vista & a Okidata ML 321 Turbo/D printer & my invoices are being
cut off on the right side, just the cents column. I had this problem a while
back & after going round & round with QB support, I was told to use a
different driver - not the one that vista uses. This fixed the problem, but
unfortunatley that computer died & I didn't remember what driver is being
used.

Mr. Simpson, there are thousands of people like you with no discernable
talent.
Yeah, they're called Congress.

Yeah they're also end users still using dot matrix printers. Dude it's the
year 2009. My kids would have a hard time recongnizing what a dot matrix
printer is and both finished graduate school.

I'm amazed a dot matrix printer even works under Vista. One of my clients
had to abandon their Oxidata printer when the upgraded to XP.

Printers are cheap these days. You can get a good laser printer for under
$150 these days. Less if you watch for sales. I've got an old Brother laser
printer that works beautifully with vista.

Haskel knows all about laser NCR paper, several of my clients use it all the
time. Yes, there are multi-part form solutions for printing with a laser
printers. What is certain is that I never met a client that switched from a
dot matrix to laser printer that would ever dream of going back.
