    shared printer problem

    I have 2 computers on a network at home. Using DSL connected through a router to internet and local net. I have an HP 6540 inkjet. The computers are running 1) WinME and 2) Vista. Both computers have the 6540 print drivers installed on the respective computers and both work fine when the...

    Lexmark E323 Laser

    I'm having trouble printing PCL now that I got the driver CD and installed it to win XP pro. All it does it print out all the PCL so i get 4 or 5 or more pages where only 1 should print and only the text comes out readable. i.e. not recognizing Esc etc. I downloaded their 2Mb+ PCL thingy and...

    Report going to fax

    I have a client using software I wrote but the program that controls the windows printing is third-party. Here is the problem (ive never encountered this is over 10years). When the client tries to print a report, it wants to print a fax instead (it's an all-in-one HP printer). Any ideas on what...

    PageTech has released a free PCL viewer that's seems pretty good.

    terminal emulation

    I'm working on a terminal emulator (pcterm emulation) in PB for windows (the console compiler). It displays well for the most part but I'm having some problems. If anyone has experience in writing these kinds of programs, i would appreciate the help. It could work into some monetary gain possibly.

    HP Psc 750 all in one printer

    Is there a way to make this printer recognize the line draw (box) characters from 128-255. I'm using PCL 5 or below and it seems to recognize the font changes but using Ec(10U Ec(s10h12v0s0b0T it wont use the box draw characters when forming lines like on a federal form facsimile. Any ideas (HP...

    printing RGB colors in PCL

    What commands do I use for to set an RGB color on a deskjet ? I want to set it to a very light gray for shading but other colors will be useful in the future. I can do the basic colors Ec*r-4U Ec*v10S for example to print in a green

    Workaround

    I have a deskjet 6540. It is capable of PCL 3 as I understand. Is there a workaround for the following code that works on most laserjets Ec*c720h720v20g2P This prints a shaded area 1 inch by 1 inch. About the closest approximation I have been able to come up with is using symbol set 10U and...

    Reverse Video (for lack of better explanation)

    Does anyone have code for printing white text with a black background in PCL. I can do it with raster graphics but not only is it time consuming but I hate using raster graphics with ink jets (though i mostly use this for hp compatible laser printers). Thanks in advance. (PCL5 or below please)

    PCL print program

    I would like to develop a PCL print program. I am experienced in PCL but not real great with API printing. I'd like to do it in PowerBasic for windows. If anyone is interested, I think it could be lucrative.

    Line Draw alternative

    I've used the Tax Line Draw Font for years in building Tax Forms. The trouble is that it's hard if not impossible to upload this set of fonts (several proportional and the line draw graphics) to an ink-jet. Of course, for the box drawing characters, you can just use Ec(10U and then the normal...
