Actually there'll be two printers, a dot matrix printing on premade forms (with copies so I can't use laser) and another better printer for reports.

The dot matrix will have to print 200 to 300 pages once a week. I wish they did it a couple a day but that's the way they've been working for years and can't change that schedule, that's why I need a fast printer driver for the dot matrix.

Right now they have a DOS program writing "directly" to a Panasonic KX-P2023 and it's printing real fast compared to the VFP report.
