Dilwyn,
Did the printer need a CD to install it or did it, upon attaching to
your computer, install itself. If the latter, then it definitely has PCL
drivers.
In QPC2 setup there is a section on printers. Select the HP printer to
the port that you want to use and then set the printer drivers
Dilwyn,
Do you have the PCL3 codes to initiate the printer the way you want it?
Such as reset, landscape, font, print spacing , etc.
Then end the printing session with another reset which sets the printer
back to where it should be and includes a form feed to make sure that
the page is

Yes, for programs like Xchange which have configurable drivers.

Dilwyn,
did you try using parda as device (d stands for no translations
used)
Otherwise the SMSQ translation tables might garble your control codes.

Ok, but I assume, Dilwyn does not do any kind of TRA.

Opening/closing the SMSQ/E channel is of course also opening/closing
the physical ports or virtual printer queues. So the printer can see
this pretty well. As such I'm not sure there is

It's almost as though QPC2 hands the printer back to Windows which then
puts it back into Windows state.
Strange! But how can Win knows a about any kind of reset code for this
printer? Ok, maybe via the installed Windows driver. Very strange.

Or maybe the opposite is true. Every time any application (including QPC2)
OPENs a print job, the printer is back into default state?
Yes, that may be the solution (a strange one, of course). Isn't there any
way, to make the printer stay in its state? I remind, that with my

Dilwyn,
It's probably worth to try switching off the Windows printer spooler and
set the option Send Print Job directly to printer.
Cheers

I'm having a spot of bother with a Hewlett Packard PSC 1510 printer. The
manufacturer states it has a HP PCL-3 control code set.
I'm printing from QPC2 (no QPCprint, this printer doesn't need it).
If I send the printer control codes like compressed 27,38,107,50,83 from either
