Printing to HP - Trouble changing point-size in courier font



Greetings to the group -
 
I've written an SQR report that uses Times-Roman font (different sizes with some bold and limited use of boxes).  There are some header and footer fields (e.g., Contact Person) that I pass as parameters to the program that I want to print in Courier to make it plain what fields have been entered by appearing they were "typed in."
 
The problem I'm having is that when I issue the alter-printer command to change the font to Courier 10-pt, the font changes from Times-Roman to Courier, but the size is super small (like 5-pt or less!).
 
I can't make the Courier point-size increase in size on the report output no matter what value I specify in the alter-printer point-size parameter.  A sample of my code follows:
 
#include 'setenv.sqc'          
begin-setup
   #include 'setup02b.sqc'      !Printer specifications for HPLASERJET
end-setup
begin-footing 
     alter-printer font=5 point-size=6
     print 'Contact Person:'                 (,90)    bold
     alter-printer font=3 point-size=10
     print $name                             (,107)   underline
end-footing
 
Platform information:
 
 $sqr-platform   : WINDOWS-NT
 $sqr-ver           : SQR/4.3.4/PC/Windows NT 4.0/Oracle 7.3.4/Jun 03 1999
 
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
