Problem

Symptoms: The customer is using standalone WP on his local drive, but printing to a Canon LBP-8 A1 over the network. The problem is that he has an Elite 12 A cartridge, that supposedly has a Line Draw font in it. He wants to access this line draw font, and can't through our driver. Whenever he chooses line draw, either by changing to the Line Draw font, or by changing to a font on the cartridge, then doing line draw, the line draw is very slow, and actually never even comes out on the printer. He has been able to access line draw so far, to a point, by modifying the IBM PC Graphics printer driver: changing the Initialize at Start of Print Job string to the escape sequence listed in the cartridge manual to access the font. But although the line draw prints out fine, it gives him a form feed at the end of each line. He has had this problem since 5.0, and would like to get it resolved. Solutions: This cartridge does not have a line draw font in it, or at least the one we have does not have a line draw font. Line draw should be made graphically. Line draw will print but it may take a while.
