>Theres old Fox for Dos app running on NT through the DOS prompt, I have a Star recipet printer on LPT1 thorough the Generic Text driver. I didn't right this app so I don't know how it prints, but when it prints a recipt it waits about 2 minutes. Or if I close down the app to the DOS prompt it prints on exit. Works fine on 95/98

I've seen this behaviour a lot in a commercial account package written in FPD 2.6. IMHO it doesn't matter if your OS is W95, W98 or NT. It seems to be related to the handling of the printjobs. Often it helps if you add a SET PRINTER TO command after the last print command.
