Hi All,

I've a serial dot matrix printer connected to Dell OptiPlex 170L P4 2.8GHz.
COM port with XP Pro O/S.
When printing to this printer, the output having alignment and words
truncated.

Please advise me how to set FIFO to OFF and lower the setting to correct
connection problem for serial printer.
Note: I can find these on Windows 98 but not on XP Pro.

Thank you in advance.

Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager, Ports, Com Ports, Port
Settings, Advanced, adjust from there.
