Winforms Printing Inconsistency

[tom thorp]

I'm currently working on my first complex VB.Net / Winforms application where I'm not using CR to print my Invoices, but have written using PrintDoc

My problem is that on my dev machine, everything works fine. When I deploy it on the production server, the graphic and lines print fine. But no text prints. If I print to a PDF creator on the server, the fonts appear just fine. I've verified that the font's I'm using are also on the server

Any thoughts about where to look? I can forward a copy of the code if requested

Thanks in advance from one really confused programme

Are you sure current printer drivers are installed? What's the printer
model? Doesn't it print anything or does it print "garbage"?

We are running with the most current drivers on a Brother 1440 laser
printer printing at 600dpi. My test printer is a Brother 1240 also
printing at 600dpi.

If a print to PDF driver, then print the PDF file, everything prints
okay. When I print directly to same printer, I have problems in not
printing text. Lines and graphics print fine.
