Please be more explicit in what you are trying to do. PC.ParallelPut() is used for some rather complicated things, but Printing is not one of them. If that's what you're trying to do: F10 wrote: The PC.ParallelPut procedure is not meant for sending a stream of characters to the parallel port (for example, if you want to send the string "Hello" to the printer). If you want to do this, open the file "LPT1" using the open statement and put to the file. If not, please post some code so we have somewhere to start. |

You dont have the drivers installed for that error. Read this site: they have the drivers and everything and make it very easy: http://www.holtsoft.com/turing/support/#parallelport |

If by that you mean you don't have a Parallel Port then you'd be fubar'd. ParallelPut outputs to the parallel port, as the name implies. |
