like my C80 - print from the QL and from Q40 but not from QPC2 which will happily print to the EPL 6200 using ESC/P2. It is a veritable minefield.

I wonder why it will not print from QPC2..... ??

Marcel and I spent an entire evening on it. If you print to it from QPC2 the heads move, the light flashes and a blank sheet of paper is pulled through.
Guess we need to consider installing a driver for one of the cheap EPSONs and see what the difference is in the output - they must still use a very similar scheme (possibly just no control codes at the start to identify the start of graphics).
But what sort of driver would you install? As far as I am aware, if the printer does not have ESC/P2 nothing happens or you get a string of odd characters printed at the edge of the paper.
.

Any suggestions on a printer which is like this and I will install the driver.

Just pick any of the cheap ones C44 etc.
