Developed on windows but prints on Dot Matrix Printer

We have made special modules so that although you work under Windows, you can print report from Trust easily on a Dot Matrix Printer. Normally, when you print report from Windows on an ordinary printer, the print out are not good and they take longer to print and also hard on the printer. We understand accounting report can be lengthy and printing through windows could be a nightmare. Not with the report from Trust.
