    [02/03] Change serial printer settings.

    Im using a Generic/Text Only serial printer, I need to control the serial settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) and the COM port (COM1, COM2...), the system.drawing.printing namespace wont let me go that far, how can I do it?

    Thanks

    is the printer actually installed in windows? Or is this the sort of thing you need to do direct serial port communication with?

    Actually installed, yes you can config the printer manually, but the end user will have enough trouble installing the printer to begin with, besides someone can user the comm port for something else and mess up with the settings.
