Need a Printer/Tester

[bplus]

OK you are responding to this;

Code: (Select All)

'Print temp$   ' why print again

For me testing with bas files, it works fine without the pcopy lines.

i just confirmed this prints exactly same as saved images (save paper and ink with saveimage);

Code: (Select All)

$Color:32
$Resize:Smooth
'Resize is so we can drag/resize the screen so it fits on a monitor
PrintScreen = _NewImage(850, 1100, 32) 'to represent an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper
Screen PrintScreen
f& = _LoadFont("arial.ttf", 18)
_Font f&
File$ = _OpenFileDialog$("Choose file to Print", _CWD$, "*.*", "Any File")
Open File$ For Binary As #1
If _FileExists(File$) = 0 Then System
Cls , White, PrintScreen
Color Black, 0
height = Int(_Height / _FontHeight(f&) - 3)
page = 1
fname$ = Mid$(File$, 1, _InStrRev(File$, ".") - 1)
Print: Print
Do
    Line Input #1, temp$
    nline = nline + 1
    Print nline; temp$
    If CsrLin >= height Then 'we probably scrolled the page.  Rip off this sheet of paper and start a new page!
        _PrintImage PrintScreen
        '_SaveImage fname$ + Str$(page) + ".PNG", PrintScreen
        page = page + 1
        Sleep 'A break so we can see which page we just printed
        Cls , White, PrintScreen
        Print: Print
    End If
Loop Until EOF(1)
_PrintImage PrintScreen
'_SaveImage fname$ + Str$(page) + ".PNG", PrintScreen
Sleep
Close
Cls , White, PrintScreen
Print "Files ready"
