I have been printing from DP to a printer on LPT1 for years.  The parallel
printers are getting harder to find.  Is there a way to print from DP to a
USB or network printer?  That would be AWESOME and save me lots of
headaches!

Subject: [Dataperf] Printing with DP

 

I have forgotten how this works (old man syndrome)
 
I know what the problem is - and what the solution is.... just not how to
*do* it.
 
 
Dos applications you would print to an lpt port.  There was no need to close
the port.
Windows applications wait and wait and wait until the default timeone before
it will start printing.
 
I know that you can change the timeout value - however this will yield poor
results when printing long reports with pauses between lines printed.
 
Rather, I know that I used to instruct data perfect via a character  Ascii
12?? ascii 13?? that it was time to print.
 
Can one remind me how this is done?   I know that I purchased DP print long
ago - but it wasn't necessary for the solution.
(Funny, I can remember steven patamia -but not how to do this)
