What are the codes needed to turn on & off Transparent Printing? I can do Printing of screens to a printer on my network with no problems. I need to make sure that I can have a slave HP Laser & have it print.

We are dialing into SCO Openserver 5.02-5.06 systems & SCO Unix 3/2V4.2 Systems.


Thanks for your help.

Respectfully Yours,

Joel

It's in the manual!

Everything but Wyse60/160
on:
esc[5i
off:
esc[4i

Wyse60/160
on:
esc d #     (don't use spaces, added for clarity
off:
Control-T

Thanks. I checked through the PDF & found what you had mentioned here. Ok so I have a default printer on my Windows 2000 box that is actually a Network printer & not connected directly to LPT1-3. Can I use Transparent Print Codes & have it sent to this printer or am I out of luck since I am using Serial Dialup & not TCP/IP?

Is there anyway to handle this situation?

If you have the current version of offsite and your application does indeed use the transparent print codes I mentioned above, you should be able to print to your networked printer (if it's on YOUR local lan).

You want to crank the baud rate up as high as possible (57,600 or 115,200) and use hardware handshaking with your modem to get the best preformance under this setup.
