It will work. The problem is I have mulitple network printers
and depending on where I am I will have to set the LPT1 port
each time. I'm just curious since the help states that the
print dialog should be displayed why it is not.
You are correct...or your expectations are. :)
It does work as advertised here on my local Windows box...a
dialog comes up prompting me to choose my printer, just as it
does in about every other windows app.
Though you didn't specify whether you're using vim or gvim, I
don't know if using non-gvim would exhibit odd behaviors like you
describe. Additionally, are you using the default build, or
perhaps something like a cygwin build? Don't know if that has
anything to do with it.
Additionally helpful information would include the results of
:set pdev? popt? pexpr? pfn? pheader?
(okay...the last two aren't likely helpful, but one never knows)
Just a few ideas to help folks track down the root of the problem.
