Problem printing front panels from LabVIEW 5.1 using a different O.S.

I have an excecutable that was developed using LabVIEW 5.1 on a Windows NT OS platform. I am attempting to run this executable on a PC using Windows XP. Everything appears to be running just fine until I attempt to run a portion of the program that executes a "print front panel upon execution" function that prints out a table, created from a sub vi running in the code. The print command executes, however, the font sizes that are generated on the hardcopy are not what I had originally intended them to be. Also, sometimes the page breaks are in the wrong place, thus making my printouts quite illegible. I ran the same executable on a workstation running Win2000, using the exact same printer, and everythin
g printed out just fine. Is NI aware of this issue, and are there any possible solutions for it?

The versions of labView that NI supports win XP are versions 6.1, 7.0. and 7.1
You could be seeing an incompatability between version 5.1 and XP

LabView 5.1.1 officially supports windows 95/98/NT/2000
