Re: Print Server - Was: QTR - GUI Problems...

Just a thought.. I am not in front of my printers (they are at home)
so I can't test right now..  Have you tried sending output directly to
"USB001:" (With a colon at the end)? Since printing is supposed to be
as simple as writing to LPT1:, with QTR doing all the work of the
driver, it might work. (How to figure out what port to which printer
automatically is another story, but we can solve them one by one).
(From the Epson driver or "net share", you can tell what USB number it
is if you have multiple USB printers)

In the mean time I am installing the latest device driver kit from
Microsoft..
