print MORE THAN 80 columns ???

I need to print 120+ columns of text only, on regular
8.5x11 paper. My computer came new with XP installed. I
understand there is a GENERIC/TEXT ONLY printer driver
available, but my XP doesn't have it.
Does anyone know if this driver will solve my situation
and if so, how do I find it.
Thank you

'Start|Printers and Faxes|Add a Printer', click "Next" when the wizard
starts, select a printer port and click "Next" again, from the
"Manufacturer" pane select "Generic", one of the choices from the "Printers"
pane is "Generic/Text Only" (the first choice on my XP Pro machine).

you can do it using Printfil and your regular printer driver.
A free trial is available for download at our web site.
