Test to see if USB Printer is ready

[sambomb]

Maybe this is the reason, with Spooler active Windows send the file to a buffer instead of direct to the printer, can you try to disable spooler?

Rick,

I found this in my notes. I didn't test it.

Here is a simple function to check to see if the printer is ready.

Code: Select all  Expand view

  function isPrinterReady(oPrn)
   return ! empty( oPrn:hDC )

Also note that if your printer is the currently active one (in the app), then the app needs to restore the default printer before testing if it is ready.
