Our application knows how to print to IBMGRX graphics printers using the Windows Escape() calls, but fails when making the same calls to a Brother HR-40 daisywheel printer configured with tty.drv. I know the Brother's configuration is correct since I print on it successfully from MS Write. None of the Escape() calls abort and I do TextOut()s with a valid HDC, but the only output I get is a formfeed. What's wrong here? Thanks for any suggestions. ---- Christopher H.
