    Also, are you able to select this text with the mouse, or does it all select as a single item? if the latter then it's an image, not real text.

    There's not enough information to answer this.

    Is it all documents or only the ones your save to the folder "My Documents"? Where do they come from? Do documents from Word print okay? What kind of printer? Describe "illegible" or show a picture.

    Do you mean faded or is it printing pages of seemingly random characters? (My PostScript printer does that sometimes if I print before it has a chance to fully warm up.) Or is it something else?

    I have an Epsom XP-200 and it prints everything okay except pdfs saved to

    my documents. The 1st attachment is printed by my Epson and the second from

    my brother's computer.1

    • If you move the PDFs out of My Documents do they print okay?

    • If you save them to another place do they print okay?

    • And then you change the location to My Documents and it stops working?

    Am I understanding this correctly?
