Hello, I have connected a professional daisywheel printing based Office Typewriter (Olivetti ET 2300 with LCU2000P paralleport interface) to my Windows 2000 PC (it can also boot into 98SE). Basically I can print on it using the WIndows Text Only printer driver. But the typewriter can not print german Umlaut äöüßÄÖÜ and a few other characters correctly out of NOTEPAD (EDITOR). When I open a dosbox and

type äöüßÄÖÜ > LPT1:

Then it's fine. But not from Notepad, there I get "|" for the characters the typewriter does not understand. In the text only driver there is a font setting where I can select different codepages and so, but from notepad this makes no difference. Currently codepage 437 is selected there.

I don't know, if that is possible to solve with the standard printer driver, if yes, do you have a tipp how this could be done?

Otherwise, is there a more powerfull text only printer driver alternative where I can set up some ASCII conversions and so?
