Client had a new computer installed and then they went to print a text report. On any text report the text is all garbled because all the spaces have been removed. Now everyone in the office prints to the same Canon 5051 printer and it is only this new computer that prints this way. Has anyone else ever seen this before? I can only assume the font set on this computer is different than all the others. How do I check to see if the same fonts are on this computer as all the others?

I think, this is related to the printer preferences setting. Try to re-install the printer driver on the new computer and check the printing preferences settings similar to other computer which is printing the report as fine. Then try again.

If you wants to check your system fonts, have a look on the below link.

Hope this helps!!!

If you are talking about printing a text report to a actual printer then the issue is with the print driver on that computer.

You can check the fonts by going to: Control Panel: Type in Fonts in the Search and it will come up with:

Font Settings (which takes you to help me choose font settings)

Fonts Available (will show all fonts)

Adjust Clear Type text

Find a character

Change font size

Hope this helps, only run into this once and had to go in and adjust the default output fonts.
