Hi All,
What is the best way to print to a network printers in Rbase for DOS and Rbase for Windows? Do both versions recognize LPT1 through LPT9? I have been using the following code with reasonable success, but I do get a few jobs that just don't print....
ZIP NET USE LPTx /delete
ZIP NET USE LPTx \\servername\printequename
OUTPUT LPTx
WRITE 'whatever you want'
OUTPUT SCREEN
--or sometimes...
OUTPUT LPTx
COPY filename.txt LPTx
OUTPUT SCREEN
Adding a PAUSE FOR 2 after the ZIP NET USE COMMANDS seems to decrease the number of times that my print jobs "get lost".
What is the best way to do this? Do both versions (DOS and Windows) running on Windows XP support LPT1-LPT9??
TIA!
Mike
