Good info ... thanks. How do the Fin fonts look when printed?
So far quite good.
I noted the printer was "postscript capable", in fact it supports
Postscript 3 and PCL 5e/6. Besides USB 1.1 / 2.0, the standard
interfaces included are 10/100Base TX ethernet, and B

Is you score displaying at transposed pitch? If so, that's the
reason. By default Bass Clarinet is set to appear in treble clef. If
you want bass clef, go to Staff Tool and double click on the B Cl
staff. Under Transposition, deselect Set to Clef...
That should do it.

Just my two cents - just purchased a Lexmark W812 a few weeks ago for

transposition is set to force the clef to treble clef. This kind of
transposition allows clef changes to exist in concert pitch display but
hides them in transposed display. It is intended primarily for

Very useful advice, Keith!
Most advanced clarinet players learn to read from concert pitch at some
point in their careers, so if they can also manage to learn bass clef
this is a logical next step for bass clarinet. It's very practical for
them to get that in early.
