Settnig the datatype to RAW [FF Append]

Hi All,

I am trying to print from a DOS application which seems OK after using

net use lpt1 \\MyPc\MyPrinter

The problem is the last page does not get printed. From my research it
seems (although I could be completely wrong) that I need to change the data
type on the print server from RAW to RAW [FF appended].

Can anyone tell me how I can do this on a W2K and XP(HE) PC. I only have a
choice of RAW or LPR in the protocols!!!!


Thanks In Advance
Ali

wrong raw, that's for setting up the network printer protocol.

Change data types in Printer, Properties, Advanced, Print Processor. Change
winprint from RAW to the format you require.
