I want to print a report on Generic/Text printer. The report is created in DOS. If this printer is connected as a local printer to the Windows98 workstation, issuing following commands print it properly -
SET PRINTER TO NAME "ACCOUNTS"  && Name of the local printer
REPORT FORM .\war\wr1210_1 TO PRINTER NOCONSOLE NOEJECT
If I connect the same printer as a local printer to the XP workstation, issuing above commands eject the page and that's it. It prints if I redirect the report to a text file and print it like this -
SET PRINTER TO NAME "ACCOUNTS" && Name of the local printer
REPORT FORM .\war\wr1210_1 TO FILE c:\temp\temp1.txt ASCII NOCONSOLE
!type c:\temp\temp1.exe > prn
How can I solve this problem?
TIA,
Yashodhan.
