Hi,
I use HTBasic for years now on windows XP. Everything works great until today where I wanted to use my application on W7.
I have an issue with Color printing, I’m not able to print something in color. only black and white.
Can someone help me to fix that.
Maybe it’s a drivers problem ?? Wich drivers are needed with HTBasic ?
Thank’s
PS: Sorry for my english
Hi, do you have verify your Printer properties in the HTBasic toolbar ?
Look at : Tools\Device Setup\WIN-PRNT\PropertiesHi ZeRider thank’s for being here
I’m actually using the PLOTTER IS function to print
When I use this line :
PLOTTER IS 10 “HPGL;PCL5;COLOR” I got an error : Improper Plotter specifier
And when i use the this :
PLOTTER IS 26 “HPGL;PCL5;COLOR” It works but only in black and white..
Thank’s
Hi,
we have given up keeping HTBasic printing directly over network printers. (XP -> W7 -> W8 -> W10)
Now we print everything to a PCL5 file, and stream that through a product called LincPDF, which can handle both text and graphics perfectly.
This can easily be called directly from HTBasic, so you will not feel the difference, but all print will create a pdf, which can be sent to any printer from Adobe.Hi Henrikhuse,
Thank’s for the idea but I have no idea how to do it with HTBasic.
Maybe can you send me an example of this ? (Just a really basic one like printing a line)
Regards.
