>I need to print on an Epson FX-1170 dot matrix printer but I would like to use draft mode because there is a lot of printing. I think printing in graphic mode in a dot matrix printer is very slow, since I really need to print very long reports each week and every sheet of paper needs a copy too. I would thank a lot to know a solution for this, is very important.

Hi Luis,

Try using the the Windows Generic / Text only printer driver, setting it up with the control codes necessary to print in draft mode. Of course, if you have to print graphics, this won't work.

hth,
