    network printing with "???"

    Thanks for all that code!  But I just can't make it work.  Am now printing the labels beautifully with ???, though the blank page still comes out on the default printer.  I can live with that, but now I've tested for errors (printer off, out of labels, etc), and...

    How to Change the Default Printer Via Code

    It's not the banner page.  I've tested this with the Novell Network off and am piping codes directly to a specialized label printer on LPT1 (from within a Foxpro Windows program).  The Windows "default" printer (a laser) still prints a blank page even under this...

    network printing with "???"

    Dave, I managed to write the codes into a file, but all attempts to print the file have failed, with stuff still going to my default printer.  Code I tried was "TYPE file.dat TO PRINTER."  Is there another way to print the file?

    How to Change the Default Printer Via Code

    Thanks for the tips, but still no answer yet.  I've tried different settings for SPOOL and Novell, but no help.  It does only happen in my Foxpro printer calls when I'm bypassing the Windows driver and either printing directly to LPT1 or doing a Novell CAPTURE to print on a...

    network printing with "???"

    The &quot;A&quot; is the default for CAPTURE anyway, but I used ENDCAP to force the print immediately (as opposed to on program exit).&nbsp;&nbsp;The default for LPT in CAPTURE is 1, and I see no other parameter where I could specify LPT.&nbsp;&nbsp;Novell prints using queues, so I guess I have...

    network printing with "???"

    Thanks for your help, Dave!&nbsp;&nbsp;The code as you listed did not work, but a variation of it did, as follows:<br><br>RUN CAPTURE TI=0 NA NB NT NFF QUEUE=ORION<br>SET PRINTER TO LPT1<br>SET PRINTER ON<br><br>??? etc<br><br>SET PRINTER OFF<br>ENDCAP<br><br>The SET DEVICE TO PRINT line you...
