QB64 Discussion / Printing to a Dot Matrix printer (Generic/Text)
« on: September 20, 2019, 11:00:41 am »
I have an application that prints text onto pre-printed, multi-part forms using a dot matrix printer. I have loaded the app into QB64 for testing and have found that the text does print to a laser printer but the printing is painfully S L O W. In the Windows Print Manager the size of the printed pages is quite large for 'text' (e.g. @19 MB). I setup a Generic/Text printer pointing to the Laser, set as the default, and now the pages do print very fast but they are all blank. Does QB64 need to have some default printing parameters setup in the program? In DOS I just pointed to LPT1: and life was good. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Ted
