Which Printer Please......

[john_murphy]

I have a little app that prints to serial printers.

This is working great but I need to share these printers

at the moment I am useing mscomm1.output =
to print but I want to use windows printers

how do I start Please.........

You can use the commondialog to select the installed printers in your windows. And when you want to print text, graphics or whatever. you can use the printer type.

Printer.CurrentX = 1000 'set the x position
Printer.CurrentY = 1000 'set the y position
Printer.Print "Visual Basic Will Rule The Earth!"
Printer.EndDoc

But if you only want to select a printer. You have to place a commondialog on your form or use the commondialog api
to select a printer for the end-users.

Commondialog.ShowPrinter
'place your code under it. so vb will use the selected
'printer.
