I am using a program called PC Food for work and the program itself runs great. The only problem is that I get a printer not ready error. i have a Canon Inkjet printer attached using USB. I am running Dosbox on a Vista 32 bit system. Do I need another program to make this work? Is there a way to test printing from the command prompt? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Great work on this program
Thanks

DOSBox doesn't support printing.
-> DOSGamesOnlyBox

Actually, I think there is a build somewhere that includes some kind of virtual printer. It creates BMP-files (or PNG ?) in the DOSBox captures directory. From there, MS Paint can be used to print the pages.

Edit: Here - Colour Printing - DosBox/XP?
