Dilwyn, Did the printer need a CD to install it or did it, upon attaching to your computer, install itself. If the latter, then it definitely has PCL drivers.
In QPC2 setup there is a section on printers. Select the HP printer to the port that you want to use and then set the printer drivers to also work to the same port. After that, if you are using, for instance, Text 87 make sure that 'para' or 'para2' is used which will connect through to the parallel port you have selected in the QPC2 Setup. I hope that this makes sense, Best Wishes, Peter Fox In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dilwyn Jones) wrote: > *From:* "Dilwyn Jones" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > *To:* "QL-Users list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > *Date:* Tue, 14 Oct 2008 17:37:14 +0100 > > >> Hmm...makes me wonder how a simple close from an unknown OS (by the > >> printer's view) could change it's state. > > > > Opening/closing the SMSQ/E channel is of course also opening/closing > > the physical ports or virtual printer queues.
