printing on Canon printer
The
only thing that has to be done is to go to the My Computer Icon open it to
display the printer folder, double click on that then choose the drive for the
printer in question, right click on that and a menu will display the
properties option at the bottom of the menu then click on properties, a menu
will open with multiple folders choose the feature folder, at this point there
is a box that sets up page layout of the printer, it is probably set to 4
pages in one, just un select the page check mark and this will print a
standard font.
Beware that since our software thinks it is printing
to our standard 24 column dot metrics printer it will only print on the left
hand side and only up to 24 or so characters thus producing a lot of
waste. Just play around with page layout maybe a 2 for one may not be so
bad.

requested a change in the font size for the output on the Canon
printer. Please remember that
when I was in Gaston this last week, they did not use the Canon printers
since there was only 1 AVTS per precinct. As it was described to me the font
size is fine as long as there are only a few races to report. It seems that the size of the output
decreases as more candidates/issues are reported. Is this possible? Do we produce the output so that it
is forced to fit on one page. I
would think that the output would be the same size no matter how many
candidates
