So, i have to look into 89c52 system. I am directly connecting 89c52 ports to printer (no buffer). I am using 8 bit data lines + busy + ack. Surely, the LPT: port has more lines than that? If you search here, you will find plenty of links & references to using the LPT: port - http://www.epanorama.net is a good one, and Jan Axelson's http://www.lvr.com/ The first thing to do would be to put a scope on the lines, and compare what the PC's doing with what your 89C52 is doing... Pl tell me how do i put formfeed in pure text file created by notepad I thought you said it worked without - so why worry? Anyhow, the standard Windoze way is to key the 3-digit decimal ASCII code on the numeric keypad whilst holding down the ALT key. Maybe later Windoze versions require 4 digits...? or by wordstar in non document mode. No idea - see your Wordstar Manual. You sould always try: copy con: lpt1:and a Ctrl+L would then be a formfeed (and you'd need Ctrl+Z to exit the copy) |
