Dot matrix printer printing slow

hi...
we have a fujitsu DL5600 and when we print form a win95 computer its seems ok...but when we print on a winNT or w2k printer...it prints slowly..it reprints each line 3 times....the printer is set for draft mode...

any suggestions...

It sounds like the print driver on NT or 2k is overriding the draft mode.  Are they the correct drivers?

Try installing the printer as a generic text printer. It seems to work better than many of the dot-matrix drivers for doing draft style printing.

thanx..i installed a lower model driver
and it seemed to work fine
I'm confused.  I question if itis the proper model drivers and you accept someone else's answer.  Explain, please.

i was using the correct drivers...the problem was solved by using drivers for a different model
