[BR_forum] NWP and PostScript

Post by gothnerd at gmail.com »

We've been doing some testing of NWP. When we print a shaded box the text doesn't show up if we use the PostScript Driver for our color phaser printer. But if we use the PCL driver for the color phaser printer, than it seems to print fine. (wbversion$=4.18e)

Have you experienced any funny business with NWP and PostScript printer driver combinations?

If you use Printer.Sys, would you please try this little program:

00010 OPEN #255: "NAME=WIN:/SELECT,recl=1024",DISPLAY,OUTPUT
00020 PRINT #255: "[SHADE]"
00030 FOR _Z=0 TO 100 STEP 10
00040 PRINT #255: "[SHADE("&TRIM$(STR$(_Z))&")] - This line is ";_Z;"% shaded"
00050 NEXT _Z
00100 PRINT #255: "[SHADE(20)]"
00110 PRINT #255: "[BLACK] THIS IS BLACK"
00120 PRINT #255: "[WHITE] THIS IS WHITE"
00130 PRINT #255: "[BLUE] THIS IS BLUE"
00140 PRINT #255: "[MAGENTA] THIS IS MAGENTA"
00150 PRINT #255: "[CYAN] THIS IS CYAN"
00160 PRINT #255: "[YELLOW] THIS IS YELLOW"
00170 PRINT #255: "[RED] THIS IS RED"


and let me know what your results are

please include answers to the following questions:
Did you see any text on the print out?
What printer did you use?
What printer driver did you use? (just the name is probably good enough)
Does the printer support color or not?
what version of BR did you test under?
How did the White text on the shaded background turn out?
How did the Blue text on the shaded background turn out?
How did the Black text on the shaded background turn out?

Any other ideas?
