Hi all, am new to this forum. Am leading a team and we have completed developing an application for the client. But i have strucked up at few places. Application developed in PHP,MYSQL. I request you all to help me overcome my problem. Here is my problem, the client is using TVS dot matrix printers. When we are trying to print the browser content, its printing slowly in graphics mode with url address at the bottom and with print and cancel buttons too. We tried to avoid this by sending output to .txt file and the file is being opened in EDIT.COM and tried to print. In that case, it is printing output in DOS mode with speed, but it is also printing tags whatever we specified and with all output with left alignment.
Now i need help for:

1. How to print browser content on dot matrix printer with dos mode type with speed?
2. How to avoid date, page numbers, url and buttons of the browser which are printing by default?
3. How to set the font style from php to printer?

I have 3days time to make this. we really in need. Someone help me.

thanks again to all of you.

1. edited to be nicer about Dot Matrix printers and the fact that they are dinosaurs
2. It's in the Printing Preferences.
3. The printer prints the same font as what's on the screen, so you ned to change the font in your application. Or use a special CSS file for printing.
