Hello, I'm running UniData 5.2.15 on AIX 4.3.2 but will be going to UniData 6.0.9 on Solaris 2.8. We have two stand alone Epson LX300+ 9 pin dot matrix printers we use to print labels. They are defined as generic (ASCII) devices. The printers are old and the output is acceptable, at best.
I'd like to replace the printers with label printers that will print on peel off labels of roll stock. These printers generally come with Windows drivers but Unix drivers seem to be lacking. Some of the higher end printers come with a programming manual that would allow me to write code to send control sequences to the printer and control everything. I've done that before but I'd rather not take the time to do that if I can simply attach a printer, either to the network or a serial connection, load a driver and create a queue, and then simply send my few lines of text to the print queue and get a label. Bar code would be nice but is not mandatory. I'm sure that we are just not looking in the right place or closely enough. We are not printing high volumes of labels so less expensive is better. Any suggestions? Thanks, Karjala -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
