I am using dual-boot system WindowsXP and Windows98 installed.I have Panasonic KX-1180 dot matrix printer.Whenever I try to print anything from WindowsXP it prints some wild characters and then stops but in the case of Windows98 it prints everything that I want.Why this problem is occuring?If anyone have solution then please tell me.

I think XP does not support dot matrix printers - Can anyone clarify on this, or are your drivers properly installed on XP. Check them out.
