[Dorset] Printer prints blocked descenders
I have a Brother 1212W Laser printer. recently it has started printing blocked descenders. It is worse when printing from LibreOffice. If I save the document as a PDF it is not quite as bad. I am using Kubuntu 16.04, The brother driver is the recommended 'Brother HL-1230 Foomatic/hl1250' LibreOffice is Version: 5.1.6.2. Any thoughts on how to resolve this are appreciated.
