Daily Racing "Program"

Depends on what you're used to. I've always used the Form, so the track program looks like Japanese to me. However, I have friends that grew up using the track program, so they're comfortable with it.

This is what we have at Arlington. You have many options

Multiple DRF choices, early east/east midwest/late midwest/late west

In house arlington program

Or a simucast book, which has equibase type PP's for every track they are carrying. Early and late book....

Me personally, I am an In house Arlington program along with TG sheets, and I'll tag along any DRF pp's from online for any other tracks I want.

If I get that simucast book in my hands, I am a danger to myself....

I personally perfer the form, unless it is going to be one of those Mountaineer, Charlestown, Penn National nights. Then I would rather have a book like with the pp's instead of downloading the form and going through 2 ink cartridges.

I had this problem until I change the print resolution / DPI on the printer. Now the printer cartidges last a lot longer.

What do you change it to?

[Danzig]

probably to 'fast' or lowest quality. i always check settings before a big print-if it's not important, not worth wasting much ink.

when you print a days form, it can take 30 or so pages just for one track.

My printer has a "Fast Draft" option which is 300 DPI. It prints much quicker than the standard option and uses much less ink.

This is what I use as well.

There ought to be a giant economy size ink cartridge, or a mess-free home refill system available, I just haven't found it yet.
