In Windows, the most reliable way to achieve this, is to install a "Generic Text Only" printer driver. I also usually set one of these up so that it prints to file instead of a port.

These instructions are for NT4 - but I imagine they are very similiar for other Windows platforms:
>Go to Start -> Settings -> Printers
>Select "Add Printer"
>Printer will be managed by "My Computer" click next
>Scroll to bottom of list of Ports and check "File" click next
>From Manufacturers: select "Generic" (type ge), then in "Printers:" select "Generic / Text Only"
>Then select the TXTONLY.DLL driver from your Windows CD or ...\i386 folder.

Hi Houston,

I followed these instructions and created a Generic/Text Only printer. Now it produces a file with prn extension. What should I do next? I looked at this file in Notepad, it looks awfull, it trancates numbers and strings, etc.
I'm afraid, this would not help me to achieve blank page functionality I want.
