Caligo Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Ok, I know this isn't really the place for it, but I thought perhaps (at least from what I know) that being VB is related to C/C++, someone here might know. I am looking to write a custom printer driver. For basics, I would say, like to control the part that holds the ink using the arrow keys on my keyboard. Is that even possible? Any information on how to go about creating a driver at all would be of great interest, and much appreciated.Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synook Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Printer drivers are technically written in Assember, however you can write in Windows-style C and compile. This looks like a good starting article: http://www.osronline.com/article.cfm?article=20. Note the printer must actually be able to move the carriage to arbitrary positions - or else no matter what commands you send to it, you won't get anywhere.

Caligo Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 Hey, thanks for the help! The article is indeed a good starting point. I'll also look into 'Assember,' as you say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
