My HP laser printer will not print all the letters
I have just downloaded 11.10 and finding several difficulties. The most important problem is that when I print a document in Libre Office some 50% of the words are mostly made up of dots, that is there are one or or two letters in a word and the ones missing are replaced by dots (it appears it may be just a d e b w h): also some of my older documents seem to be OK but I have only tried a very few so far. The page and the print preview show normal words. I have tried saving again and in a different font and also in *.doc and *.odt to no avail. Even a completely new document show the same problem.
I have found that in my printer properties if I change "PDF" to "Post Script" under 'file' - 'printer settings' - 'properties' - 'device' it appears to correct the problem BUT this will not stay set on Post Script for all documents only for the individual ones that have been changed. The system settings 'printer' does not allow one to do this. I don't know if this works for other printers as now my Epson Photo R300 will NOT work and for many years I have been unable to get my Brother scanner/
