November 2007 19:12 =46rom: "Vedran Vucic" To: "Claudia Neumann" hello, It is interesting that the same DOS application printed wonderfully wit= h dosemu 1.2.2 but I have problem with dosem 1.4.0 even more challenging is that for example: copy autoexec.bat lpt2: works fine and printer prints that well. Thus, to be more focused and precise, a part that interacts DOS applica= tion with dosemu is somehow problematic. Actually, DOS application that pri= nted well with USB desktJet 845C HP in doesmu 1.2.2. but with USB LaserJet H= P 1020 in dosemu 1.4.0 does not print except when I put in /dosemurc that printer is raw. but, in teh later case it prints in distorted and garb= led way. Maybe you can check discussion on: http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/forum (you will see thread related with HP 1020 LAser Jet and my topic about DOS/BOX won't print. Where I ask author of driver are there any advices from his side. If you have anyideas please let me know. regards, vedran On 11/25/07, Claudia Neumann wrote: > Hi Vedran! > > DOSemu is reacting as DOS.
