Re: printing

[Ivan Baldo <ibaldo@adinet.com.uy>]

     Hello.
     Strange then... it seems everything is configured right but your 
specific application doesn't work.
     Have you waited more than 20 seconds?
     Also, you may try putting this in dosemu.conf:
$_lpt1 = "lpr -P Laserprinter"
$_lpt2 = "lpr -P Laserprinter"
$_lpt3 = "lpr -P Laserprinter"
     This is just in case that it uses another port.

     Another thing you can try:
$_lpt1 = "cat >>/tmp/dosemu.lpt1"
$_lpt2 = "cat >>/tmp/dosemu.lpt2"
$_lpt3 = "cat >>/tmp/dosemu.lpt3"
     Then try printing from the program and look at those files in /tmp 
to see what they contain.

     Hope this helps!
     Bye.
