Reciept Problem

Post by TheVillain » Fri May 12, 2006 2:45 pm

I am printing out reciepts on a full page of paper, and all of the lines on it aren't line up correctly. I was wondering how to fix this problem.

TheVillain,

This was a problem with USB printers and the original version of APRINT.EXE.

However the problem was fixed with the current POS version 6.39 which uses APRINT2.EXE

What version are you using?

6.39

TheVillain,

If you are using a version of POS earlier than 6.38c you will have to update to 6.39 because POS versions earlier than 6.38c will not function with APRINT2.EXE if you are using the "Pause between receipts" or "Ask before printing a receipt" settings.

TheVillain,

Did you do the setup to choose the correct printer, font, and font size?

Are all the pages the same or are they different receipts?

i chose the right printer and everything, i haven't actually had any of the reciepts print, i just see that the document is a couple thousand pages in the print que. When i open APRINT2 a document comes up, and when i close it, it goes away
