You can download the gsx230.zip set for win98se from driverguide.com that may do it but I'm not sure on that one. Or you may need to use a 3rd party software to get what you want.see below ▼ http://www.download.com/ClickBook/3000-2088_4-10345085.html?tag=lst-0-1 http://www.download.com/InstantInvoice/3000-2066_4-10400531.html?tag=lst-0-3 I recall using a print program on my Epson dot.that would let you reisize it to what you need but I don't recall the name off the top of my head,but if you can't find a program let me know and I will look it up on my old win98 machine.. I used a 3 1/2" x 6" Invoice if I recall it right. One more note. I also used a Star Printer driver (same as a Epson and IBM format) that did the same thing almost for the Citizen Laz.Printer ,150 lb.printer.

BUT, you can use the IBM Pro Printer II driver, and then you will be able to apply your custom settings. This is because all the impact printers are based in the IBM model. Try it.
