File this under "it'll probably never happen to you",
but just in case you ever see this....
Just installed RBWin 6.5+ at a client. Upgraded DOS
reports and new reports printed just fine to both local
and networked printers (2 HP models, 1 Epson dot matrix,
and 3 Okidata models). However, the first time I tested
sending a simple "list" command from the r> prompt produced
a blank piece of paper.
Turns out that data from the r> prompt would print ONLY on
the Epson dot matrix and the oldest Okidata laser printer.
(I tried switching the RBase system fonts, no difference.)
I had to "back down" the drivers on the 2 HPs and the other
2 Okidatas and finally got it to work. The strange thing is,
the HP Laserjet 4 would not work unless it had the plain
"HP Laserjet" driver. However, the newest Okidata they had
worked perfectly fine when IT had the "HP Laserjet 4" driver
(it didn't work with its Okidata driver).
Environment: all Win98 terminals, Win2000 network
