Application form - hand fill or type fill ?

I'm thinking of returning to workplace and have an application form from the internet.

My question is - is it better to print and hand write answers or type write answers and then print.

If the latter what font/colour would you suggest so that answers show as clear responses to questions ?

    Must state a preference for a serif'd font. Calibri is sans serif.

    Thanks for your replies.

    I would post or hand deliver it. I prefer to type it, I'll give the fonts you suggest a try and see how it looks.

    Personally I would write it by hand unless emailing it back. Some compnaies prefer handwritting forms to see what your handwritting is like if it would be involved in the position you are applying for!
