RE: [U2] [UV] Got PCL printer?

2004-12-06 Thread Marilyn Hilb
I used SEND() and GET in Unidata to transmit/receive via a modem. Try reading 
the help on these commands, not sure if they'll talk to a printer port/address. 

Thanks,

Subject:[U2] [UV] Got PCL printer?

Due to the system shared printer nature of Universe, it seems unlikely that
a Basic program can do any direct I/O with a printer, BUT...

I gotta ask if there's any way to tell if a printer channel has a printer
attached that supports HP-PCL? I could send an escape sequence, but can I
get anything back?

ESC * s 1 is sent to the printer

PCL
ECHO 1

should be returned


I'm not sure if you have to be in PJL mode of not for this:
I've never tried using this, just read it from the PCL manual.


I don't know how you would read this data however
