Clipper 5.2 app running on MSII network. App prints to local LPT1 HP LaserJet4 printer.

They just changed to XP computer and now the labels don't space correctly (using .LBL form designed in dBase years ago, but up til now worked fine).

Since changing to XP, there is ever-so-slight decrease in space between each line of text. Is such a little decrease that is barely noticeable unless you're printing labels 3 across, 10 down the page. Each label's info going down the page prints a little higher on the label until soon the top line of text is printing on the bottom of the label before it.

Can access same program from Win98 machine and print to different LaserJet and labels print just perfectly (like they did on the other system before XP).

Their IS folks tried installing an updated HP driver for XP, but that changed nothing. Labels print okay from WordPerfect on the XP machine. Any ideas (other than dumping the labels to a text file and letting WordPerfect print them)?
