Summary:

In Microsoft Word versions 3.00, 3.01, and 3.02, underlining does not work correctly with the Brother printer driver; underlining prints as word underlining. Also, OPTION+SPACEBAR does not force underlining of spaces between words.

This is a limitation in the Brother printer driver provided by Microsoft with Word versions 3.x. The only way to simulate true underlining on the Brother printer with this driver is to place underscore characters between words instead of spaces.
