Sorry, I forgot. Actually, I used the dos 6.5++ version. I just now did that
again and I also used the Windows 6.5++ version. When I compared the two
files they agreed exactly. Today I sent each file to my HP1100A printer and
neither looked like what you wanted. Of course, the control codes are
different! The "generic" printer I used yesterday is an Okidata Microline
320 and the codes I used match what it needs.
Do you have access to the RB Dos PRD files? If you are having a code problem
you may be able to extract the appropriate set up strings from them.
