As far as I can see, the output I get is sort of more than one layer
over another. Sort of like the site has been cut in four horisontal pieces
all put on top of one another - the result a mish-mash 5 cm in height in
the middle of the paper.

Okay, I get courier 12. But I still get a complete mess. In ASCII mode
there is absolutely not layouting of the text.

Same here. No problems with other programs.

I think I will try to switch printer driver. I have a HP 6MP - it is a
PostScript printer, so I normally use the PostScript driver. But perhaps
it will be better if I use a non-PostScript driver. Hmmmm... my floppy
don't work, and the printer driver is on the install disk. No testing
then I guess.
