Thank you Gerardo

I went with Tracy's suggestion. i a not sure if there are any dot-printers out there which can print in a resolution higher or equal to 300 - i kind'a think there are.

thank you much for your suggestion!

>PRTINFO(11) returns printer's vertical resolution, and for what I know the max resolution on most dot matrix printers is below 200 while all other printers are above 300.
