LPT1 printer port in modern pcs?


computer doesn't have regular printer port? in of computer , check because motherboards desktop computers still provide lpt1 connector @ back.
if not, you'll have conversion cable/device ray mentioned.

real problem may won't able find printer driver old printer. click on 'add printer' under 'printers & faxes' in control panel run printer installation wizard. if printer not listed , can't find on internet, try 1 of other printer models listed under printer manufacturer.

after that, can try printing out invoices. remember select printer use when print out invoices whichever program using.

if selected different printer driver , invoices not printing properly, can try editing invoices not include kind of graphics (just regular text) , saving them regular ansi text file (.txt). after that, click on start button, click on 'run...' , type in 'cmd' (without quotes) , press enter key. when console window pops up, type in 'edit' (no quotes) , press enter. edit text editor simple console program , allows print text printers connected lpt1 printer port. can select built-in printer font use through controls on printer.

if you're using dot matrix printer 'point of sale' use , you're doing printing multi-paper invoices carbon paper stuff, need find proper windows driver. (unless you're using old dos point of sale program, heh.)
dot matrix printers still being sold, lot more expensive ink jet printers.

how can connect old lpt 1 parallel port dot matrix printer on newer computer uses usb? printing invoices

thanks
