SUMMARY

If you use the printer driver for the Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet 4/4M (HPPCL5E.DRV) version 1.03 or 1.04, or the HP LaserJet III Series (HPPCL5A.DRV) version 3.7, 3.77, 30.3.86 or 31.3.89, text may be printed on top of graphics, even though the graphic covers the text on the screen display.

MORE INFORMATION

In previous versions of the HPPCL5A driver in Windows 3.0, graphics always printed on top of text.

To work around this problem, do one of the following:
  1. If printing in Windows 3.1, choose a True Type font and check the "Print True Type as Graphics" option in the printer driver dialog box.
  2. If using the HPPCL5E driver with the HP LaserJet 4/4M, select the HP- GL/2 graphics mode.
