Re: [ql-users] Printing with QPCprint via XChange
OK Ralf obviously a different problem to mine, ah well I'll keep plugging away at it when I get the time All the best - Bill - Original Message - From: Ralf Reköndt [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 06, 2006 7:35 AM Subject: Re: [ql-users] Printing with QPCprint via XChange Hi Bill, printing works ok (see what I have written abut text87). It also works via SBasic. All no problem. QPCprint is used and first in the queue. So, nevertheless, what kind of Windows printer is attached to QPCprint, QPCprint is the first and leading part. If it does not give an output, there is nothing or the port remains open.

[ql-users] Extracting QL Programmes from Microdrive to PC
Hi All This is my first post here so please go gently with me! I have just resurrected my QL by getting a new keyboard membrane for it, and have been delighted to find all the programmes and documents that I wrote 21 years ago. I would like to get the files transferred onto my PC so I can run them under an emulator. Does anybody know of a method of transferring files from microdrive to CD? Does anybody offer this as a service? I only have a standard QL with microdrives - I have no disk drives etc. Any help or suggestions gratefully received! All the best Ben ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

Thank you.

Re: [ql-users] Micro Peripherals I/F EPROM
Hi Phoebus, Just in case you missed my earlier contribution to this thread, Quanta has a lot of stuff donated by ex QLers (sad) which Rich Mellor and I are hoping to catalogue and make available to anyone who wants a copy - time is short at the moment but it will get done. I can't help you with the items you refer to but keep on asking - we may have something you need. Regards, John Gilpin. - Original Message - From: Phoebus R. Dokos (Φοίβος Ρ.
