This program allows an EPSON LQ (or compatible) printer to more closely
emulate an FX-80 class printer. This allows most graphics and word
processing programs to work properly. The main symptom is that pages
printed are longer than 1 page. This is due to the fact that the LQ uses
the same escape sequences as the FX but interprets the spacing codes
differently.
See the comments in prnfiltr.asm for details of what and how this program
functions.
To install, just run prnfiltr. It installs itself and intercepts all
output requests to lpt1 and checks for printer escape sequences to modify.
It has only been tested on a parallel port addressed as lpt1.
Have fun.
