Hi
I have some windows XP PC's with printers attached to the parallel port. I have installed Print Services for Unix on the XP PC's and setup some printers using rlpconf that can successfully print to these winxp printers.
My problem is that when one of our applications sends some escape characters to change the pitch or orientation instead of carrying out the commands it prints them. I have tried changing the printers driver options from RAW to ELF and vice versa and also adding the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LPDSVC\Parameters\SimulatePassThrough. When I set this to 1 as some docs on the net suggest printing stops altogether.
Anybody got any ideas?
