What are some functions names in C for programming printers?
Maybe some library ? 7 2310

There are none in Standard C. Since you mention DOS, you may strike
lucky in comp.msdos.prog ramming or similar groups.

C itself provides only fopen(), fprintf(), fwrite(),
and the rest of the I/O library. The job of discovering
a printer's name for fopen() and of deciding what kind of
data to send to it is up to you. Some kinds of printers
may not be usable at all given only what unextended C offers.

You mean something other than fopen/fwrite/fprintf/fclose? There are none
in standard C.

Perhaps. Have you looked?

ITYM comp.os.msdos.p rogrammer.
One way of "programmin g printers" for any platform is to just
send text directly to the port that the printer is on.
Otherwise you will need to interface to a printer driver; in which
case you will have to read the printer driver documentation, or
if your OS provides a common printer interface, then ask in that
OS's newsgroup.

Right. I stand corrected. Thanks.

Hello,
I tried to find out how can I print a document through php. What I want,
is to add a "print button" within a web page (something like the "Print"
button of the explorer, but within the page).
I tried a little bit with the printer_open() function of php but with no
luck. I red the docs, but I couldn't understand which functions are
required to print.

Hello all,
I'm using VB6.0 to write an application which prints a report. The problem I

Using the code below doesn't show the printer box to allow the selections to

I am doing my own PrintDialog, and have placed there a combo with the

Here is the question: how do I open the native windows printer dialog
for the current printer, so that my current

?
Thanks

OK, I tried getting and old Newbury Data ND2500 working using the "Generic
/Text only" driver in Win XP. It prints, but I could not find a way to set a
custom page size that matches the paper I am using. So there was no way it
would ever work.
The customer is happy to buy another Dot Matrix printer because the ND2500
can be used elsewhere. So which printer should I get that can plug and play
with Access?

I have created an image using GD lib and now I would like to print it

(Is there a method that involves saving it as a file first?)

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
