[RBASE-L] - RE: Printing with RBase 6.5++ Dos on Win2K

[Javier Valencia]

I believe that the OUTPUT PRINTER command in R:Base for DOS will send the output to the parallel port (LPT1). In Windows 98 you can capture the network port to print to LPT1, I am not sure how it works in Win2K. If I remember correctly, there is a command that you can run from the command prompt (server???) to assign a printer to port LPT1. You may want to do a search on the list for a thread not too long ago that addressed this subject; I will try to find it and post it, although one of the network gurus will probably come up with something sooner.   Javier Valencia, PE President Valencia Technology Group, L.L.C. 14315 S.

Environment is RBase Dos built 1.851xRT03, OS is Win2K, SP3 Command file is: Output  Printer Print SubOpen where limit = 10 output screen Return Windows Default Printer is : \\SSW1\HP2200-1.Stalder VERY simple command, and RBase hangs, and the report doesn't print. These are old 4.5++ command files that are slowly being upgraded, but I have to keep them working until the Win versions are working. I can't seem to find the solution, and it's driving me nuts! OK, Guru's help a brain drained guy out :) Damon Damon D. Kaufman President Stalder Spring Works, Inc ISO-9002 / QS-9000 Certified 2345 S.
