I would like to implement printing in one of my applications, and this particular use requires that the printing be done asynchronously. In this case the "pIdleProc" feature in the Printing Manager is not sufficient. I only need to print text, so the low-level printer driver is sufficient for my needs; therefore, what I want to do is use asynchronous PBControl calls. My question is this -- does the printer driver support asychronous operation? This is very important to me; if it does not I'll sacrifice portability between printers and write ASCII output with the serial driver. -- John Bruner (S-1 Project, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) jdb@mordor.s1.gov ...!seismo!mordor!jdb (415) 423ritrit
