Problem

Solutions: It is not uncommon for vertical line draw lines to be broken or chopped when using fonts other than Courier 10, especially when using dot-matrix printers. If the printer can print graphics, the following steps can be used to remove the character mappings for the line draw characters in the .PRS file:
1.      Enter the PTR Program and retrieve the .PRS file
2.      Press Enter on the printer
3.      Highlight Fonts and press Enter
4.      Highlight the font needed and press Enter
5.      Select the character map and press Enter on the character set
6.      Delete the printer command strings for all line draw characters
7.      Exit and save the .PRS file

Line draw will now print as a graphical character instead of using the actual line draw character. This process is slower and may not work for all printers.
