Thanks to everybody who responded to my first note on this question.
Everybody ended up with just about the same answer which was print
indirectly via NotePad or Word or use W. Vaughn's suggestion of Print Wizard
from Anzio.
With all respect to Anzio and many thanks to Bob Rassmusen who called me
directly at my request my client believes that they would rather spend the
money on a new printer that would work with filePro than get involved with
anything else.
My problem is I have talked with Dell and been to three computer stores.
Dell knew of Windows GDI but none of the computer store people had any idea
of what it meant. None of them could tell me what printer to buy that would
work with filePro since they never heard of filePro and I was not able to
explain why it would not work.
We are looking for a printer in the $100 to $125 range which Epson and HP
both have. The printing application is filePro reports, filePro "H"ardcopy
of screens and other things in the Windows environment (Excel, Word,
WordPerfect etc.). If possible maybe pictures later but this is not a
priority.
Any suggestions of what printers to look at or how to explain that filePro
does not talk Windows GDI to people who know even less than I do about it
would be very much appreciated.
The printer has a USB port connection.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.
