SYMPTOMS
Under Windows NT 3.5, if you print any type of graphics or True Type fonts on an Okidata ML320 (using the OKI9.DLL file) dot matrix printer, the printout may contain garbage or incorrectly formatted characters. Because dot-matrix printers print True Type fonts as graphics, all True Type fonts are affected.



RESOLUTION
To print text correctly, use a built-in printer font, such as Courier 12CPI. There is no workaround for printing True Type fonts or graphics.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Workstation and Windows NT Server version 3.5. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.5.
