Hello!

I am just preparing a new computer and have to use some essential programs written in dbase IV some years ago which run very good.

The new system ist Win7 x64 and there i have until now no chance to print terms coming from the dbase programms sending to lpt1.

in the dosbox "dir > lpt1" works fine
but when i start dbase printing there is no printing at all 🙁

the config file:
printer=true
dpi=360
width=85
height=110
printoutput=png
multipage=false
docpath=.
timeout=0
.
Prallel1=reallpt realbase:d010 ecpbase:d017 (i got the adress via Dr.Hardware)

in the orginal SVN_MB6:
i get:
- porttalk service is not installed
- error: could not open porttalk driver

i got the following porttalk drivers:
-Porttalk.sys 10.6k date 29.11.2009 in windows\system32\drivers
-Porttalk.dll 47.0k date 30.11.2009 in windows\system32\
-Porttalk.dll 36.0k date 30.11.2009 in windows\syswow64

i hope someone can help
