Subject: RE: Printing to High Speed Dot Matrix Printer from Windows
Dear folks
Many thanks to those of you who responded with ideas. We are still not
there. The most promising looked to be Danielle's idea of:
OUTPUT LPT1: with the COLON being the key.
This works GREAT with a LOCAL printer, but fails on a network printer!!!
Danielle, if you are out there, any ideas on how to make your idea work if
the printer is a NETWORK printer?
