L4D - How to print RAW when using Windows Print Dialogue to select printer.



L4D in default mode will interpret the output and convert it to windows print. It will scale etc. so it fit in the assumed paper size i.e. the paper size the device report it is using etc.


L4D will interpret PCL and Epson MX (IBM Proprinter) commands and create a windows print from it.

RAW is basically and override where things are like they used to be, but that means that the Printer Driver in DFD must match the printer that you send it to or it will all be gibberish or “emoji” as a partner of us call it.

So if you want to combine selection of Printer dynamically when at the same time have RAW then there is a way as long as they accept that if they send the output to a printer that doesn’t support PCL it will be gibberish.


For the LPT port (or COM port) you want to use with Dynamic printer select simply use the Advanced tab and in the Advanced DEOs config setting type in the LPTx port = RAW. Ex. Is LPT2

For any printer port you type in here it will overwrite any setting set in the Printer page.

LPT1 = RAW
LPT2 = RAW

LPT3 = RAW

LPT4 = RAW

etc.
