RE: Accuvote-TS registry
I have installed a
serial thermal printer on com4 and can print reports, however the label, after
a download, is not being printed.
Can someone provide a description of the
registry functionality for avts, by key?
Is the label print function hardcoded
for Lpt1?
The PrinterComPort value
the registry is ignored if PrintReverse is 0, so even though you have
PrinterComPort set to COM4, AVTS reporting doesn't actually use it. What
it does is use either the default printer, or puts up a standard print dialog,
depending on the DefaultPrinter registry
entry.
That is except for
printing labels, which always uses PrinterComPort. Problem is that your
thermal label printer requires a windows driver (I bet) so it just drops on the
floor the ASCII being sent to it for the
label.
I spare further
commentary. In short, ENOSUP, but it should be if we are going to use
these printers.
