Dear all, How to send escape sequence code to a dot matrix printer ? (Epson LX-300+)
I used the code below, but it does not run: -draft is not set on the printer -left margin is not set -right margin is not set -12 CPI is not set -text is printed, but not under expected formatting. -text is printed using formatting from printer-hardware, not from the software. ------------- -Paralel port LPT1 -Windows XP ------------- //(memos is a TMemo) //(escape-codes come from Epson's User Manual) var escInit: String = #27'@'; //select n/72 inch line spacing + n escLeftMargin: String = #27'l1'; // left margin 1 kolom escRightMargin: String = #27'Q1'; // right margin 1 kolom escSetDraft: String = #27'x0'; //draft mode escSetNLQ: String = #27'x1'; //NLQ mode escSelect10CPI: String = #27'P'; // 10 cpi escSelect12CPI: String = #27'M'; // 12 cpi begin AssignFile(Output, 'LPT1'); Rewrite(Output); Write(Output, escInit); Write(Output, escSetDraft); Write(Output, escLeftMargin); Write(Output, escRightMargin); Write(Output, escSelect12CPI); Write(Output, memos.Text); CloseFile(Output); end; ------------- Is there something wrong, or is there another way?
