[Fsf-friends] Help On Dot Matrix Printing

[swathantra software]

Hello,

   Could anyone please help us in getting dot matrix printer working in Openoffice?.
Kannur district administration is getting migrated to GNU/Linux and as part of it few section has got GNU/Linux Redhat 9 installed. All sections has got dot matrix printer Model WIPRO HQ 1040+( 24 pin). Using printtool in RH9,  local printer is configured using driver epson LQ1050 ( "omni" driver)( we do not know
what is the compatible driver in Linux for this Model, so tried epson LQ1050). A test print from printool worked just fine. But in OpenOffice we can not get any printout. When we tried the driver epson "dot matrix" ( driver "epsonc")
OpenOffice did print, but the quality was very poor and print is not clear. The printer works just fine in Windows. 
Could anyone please  help us to fix the problem.?. 

 Apreciating your help


Regards
