Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

Both from my Windows computer and my Mac, the printer is not printing standard fonts like helvetica and arial and calibris.

 

Bizarrely, completely by chance, it printed canada-type-gibson.

 

Please help.

 

Does not work in pdf either.

Printing fonts depend on the application you use to print. Let us try these steps:

 

Update the printer firmware

Also, check for updates on the computer.

 

Try making a standalone copy and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.

 

Let me know how this goes.
