When I print a document from a DOS application, the fonts don’t look right.

Try choosing different fonts. If you’re using Epson fonts instead of bitmap
fonts, use monospace fonts for best formatting results.

If you’re using Epson emulation, you may have chosen Faster Printing in the
Preferences dialog box of the PC Print Spooler, which prints the whole
document using a single font. Choose Better Quality and try printing again.

You may have selected a proportional space font as your default font in the
PC Print Spooler. If you select a proportional space font, the formatting of
your files may change. Try selecting a monospace font such as Courier or
Monaco or using the graphical fonts available in your DOS application.

Other problems

I’m running applications in both environments and they seem sluggish.

Significant drive access in one environment (including file sharing) can cause
a slowdown in the other.

The PC environment is frozen, and pressing Control-Alt-

doesn’t reset the system.

Try restarting by pressing x-Control-Alt-[keypad] period (the decimal point
on the numeric keypad) or x-Control-Alt-…. If you can, switch to the Mac
OS and click Restart PC in the PC Setup control panel. If these options don’t
work, reset the Macintosh using the Reset key or keyboard command.

I can’t configure my mouse.

You don’t need to configure some mouse devices.

If you have a two-button ADB mouse or trackball, you may be able to use the
mouse software to map the = (equal) key on the numeric keypad to the right-
mouse button.
