A printer has print wires arranged in a plurality of print head groups, each group comprising a predetermined number of print wires, the individual print wire groups being arranged according to a slanted serrated wire pattern. A print head image generator is provided and is operable under control of a microprocessor to convert conventional character wire images from a data source such as a host system to the slanted wire images required for printing by the printer.
