It's a Canon PIXMA iP4000 printer using the driver off the installation CD.

Needless to say the printer works fine under windows.

When I do a SPOOL -LIST

UV lists:-

Printer: Microsoft Office Document Image Writer
no entries.

Printer: Canon PIXMA iP4000
no entries

When I append the GDI,NODEFAULT it prints but it lists the file with line
numbers and a

Record 1 File &HOLD& Account ... and time and date  Header and Footer

The escape character is printed as ^027
graphic characters printed as ^218^196^194 etc

Thanks, at least it prints sofar.  More help please.

What kind of printer are you using and with which driver?

You might need to either:

install it using the generic/text only driver (won't work with some printer models)

OR

issue the GDI flag as part of your SETPTR to switch to graphic mode printing if not:

SETPTR ,,,,,,AT yourprinter,GDI,NODEFAULT

I have the Personal Edition (V10.1.11) installed on Windows XP Professional
and had printing working on a printer on the printer port.
