Having an intermittent issue when something gets queued to the receipt
printer, the printer will seem to hang ~ still see it in the print queue fine
(small 8k file) but no joy...however, as soon as I close Store Operations it
prints right out. Any ideas?

Thanx

Josh -

It's a TM-88III direct connect using LPT (hanging off the s/w dongle). I
checked the port configuration/spooler settings and all appears normal.
Printer is not being shared. Process priority is defaulting to 20.

Thanx.

never tried that setup before with the dongle and the printer on the same
port. Maybe problem there. The only other problem I have had with lpt
printers is to make sure that in bios the lpt is set to epp/ecp or just epp.
Maybe try adding a lpt2 pci card and run the printer off that.

the port is actually set to ESDPRT001 ... maybe this is a problem. I'll try
and change it to epp or ecp and see if this improves things...

thanx
