- Hi,
-
- I have seen a similar problem in using Windows 3.1 when printing to
- an Apple LaserWriter. If the Windows LaserWriter driver is used and the job is
- sent to the queue, errors are generated. But if we send the same file to disk
- and then print it, all works fine. If anyone has gotten this to work properly,
- please let me know what you did.
-
- Configuration:
-
- Windows 3.1
- LaserWriter driver sending output to LPT2.OS2 port
- CAPTURE LPT2 to a queue with PostScript print job configurations
- Using SHELL.CFG (PRINT HEADER = 255)
- Using XMSNETX.COM and IPX.COM (will try the ODI drivers)
- SMC Elite 16 workstation NIC
- ATPS.NLM v3.1
- Macintosh imports file (from WORD for Windows) and it prints fine (of course).
- If Windows sends the file to the queue, "Error Undefined Command..."
- If Windows sends the file to disk (EPS) then NPRINT the file it prints fine!
-
- Thanks...
-
- Think Peace and PLEASE V-O-T-E-VOTE!!!
