Thank you for your replies. I too am baffled. For the time being, I
will try to find another printer to see if the problem persists. My
hp printer has done other goofy things in the past.

In all of this I wonder if the problem isn't elsewhere. Nothing I
have seen, code-wise, suggests a problem in Rb.
Perhaps it's a settings or driver problem as Rb only has control
over the most basic settings.
If I used your code I would have no problem on my Epson 880 on Mac.

I print using PrintField (an editfield) inside a staging window
called PrintStage. I load the editfield, then send it to the
printer via DrawBlock. Briefly:
DIM STPPage As StyledTextPrinter
STPPage = PrintStage.PrintField.StyledTextPrinter
(g,PageWidth) // load block
STPPage.DrawBlock(40, 40, PageHeight) // send a block to
the printer
This allows printing in normal darkness. However, when I try to
load a font, or point size via:
PrintStage.PrintField.TextFont = "Andale Mono"
PrintStage.PrintField.TextSize = 8
then the printing changes to draft mode (very light). My question
is, how can I get it to print in normal mode (not draft) while
still assigning a font and point size?
I use an HP psc 2410xi photosmart all-in-one inkjet printer.
Thanks for the help, TJH
I haven't been able to duplicate your results on my Epson C82 ink
jet printer from MacOS, with PrintField set to Styled and
MultiLine, so I don't know what is causing the problem. Does it
print light when setting a larger font size? You might try setting
your font and text size using SelStart...etc, as below, but it's
just something to try, not likely a fix:
PrintStage.PrintField.SelStart = 0
PrintStage.PrintField.SelLength = len(PrintStage.PrintField.Text)
PrintStage.PrintField.SelTextFont = "Andale Mono"
PrintStage.PrintField.SelTextSize = 8
PrintStage.PrintField.SelText = "Now is the time for all good
men to come to the aid of the party"
