# Put Your Inkjet in Plotter Mode

Here is an answer to [Robert Haley’s](http://localhost/indiv/robert-haley/) letter in FORUM, SWN 4/2. I suspect the chief problem is understanding the PR2300 User Guide. It seems to have been written in Italian and translated into UK English (rather than American English) by someone whose first tongue was NOT English.

Awkward User’s Guide notwithstanding, the PR2300 has some things to its credit. It uses ordinary paper, it’s not expensive, and it has bit-mapped graphic capabilities.

According to the PR2300 User Guide there are two types of PR2300 firmware. I presume Mr. Haley has FWM 001, the regular ISO ASCIl printer with plotter/graphics features.
