Hi guys,
at first sorry that my english is not the best^^
Now go one to my problem:
i´m using dosbox megabuild 6 on my PC´s (WIndows 7 32- and 64-Bit) and i´m not trying to play a game, i´m using it to use a programming tool from my company, but i can´t print something.
My settings are these:
[parallel]
# parallel1: parallel1-3 -- set type of device connected to lpt port.
# Can be:
# reallpt (direct parallel port passthrough using Porttalk),
# file (records data to a file or passes it to a device),
# printer (virtual dot-matrix printer, see [printer] section)
# Additional parameters must be in the same line in the form of
# parameter:value.
# for reallpt:
# Windows:
# realbase (the base address of your real parallel port).
# Default: 378
# ecpbase (base address of the ECP registers, optional).
# Linux: realport (the parallel port device i.e. /dev/parport0).
# for file:
# dev:<devname> (i.e. dev:lpt1) to forward data to a device,
# or append:<file> appends data to the specified file.
# Without the above parameters data is written to files in the capture dir.
# Additional parameters: timeout:<milliseconds> = how long to wait before
# closing the file on inactivity (default:500), addFF to add a formfeed when
# closing, addLF to add a linefeed if the app doesn't, cp:<codepage number>
# to perform codepage translation, i.e. cp:437
# for printer:
# printer still has it's own configuration section above.
# parallel2: see parallel1
# parallel3: see parallel1
parallel1=file dev:lpt1
parallel2=disabled
parallel3=disabled
and then i´m using this command to direct the print job to my network/usb/pdf printer:
net use LPT1: \\Benny-PC\CAE2000 /PERSISTENT:YES
But now comes the problem. i can see the print job at every printer but it will successfull deleted without anything comes out of the printer.
I´m already tried the seetings with Spooling etc. and nothing helps.
Now my question:
Can someone help me on this platform?
MfG Benny
