Hi Darrell,
thank's for your answer.
It does not make any difference. I have used only generic drivers, many
different types, even the Microsoft Fax printer and Generic/Text. I tried
USB, LPT, FILE, ... always the same.
I think that the application is looking for installed printers at startup
and does not get the information it wants to - or something like that. I
think I have to try to contact the developers.
Best regards,
Oliver
