  printer driver is set to [Auto], certain lines may not be
  printed. In this case, change [Halftoning] to [Dither(Fast)],
  [Dither], or [Diffusion].

- Microsoft Word Version 7.0 (Microsoft Corp.)

  To use the enlargement/reduction function, first select
  [Start] - [Settings] - [Printers], and right-click on the name
  of the printer you use. Then select [Set as Default], and
