I 've just completed the same task and I found that if a font, size and style are not specified as a global or for each line being printed the printer supplies a default. If you care to share a little more complete code snippet I could see if what I did would fix your problem. My last issue is setting the default in the printer to legal, tractor feed, because Windows defaults to manual, letter.
