Hello to the community,

     Is it so difficult to send characters to the printer from Ada on
windows ?
     My printer is a local HP laserjet MP6 called HPL6 on port LPT1:
simple minded as I am I believed that

Open( PrintFile, Out_File, "LPT1:" );

or Open( .... "\HPL6" );

    Anyone already dit it ? what is the printer name to use in the
Text_io.Open statement ?

    Many thanks for help (or I'm gonna clash a neuron)

    VMO

(When the printer is remote on a server, a name like
"\\ServerName\PrinterName" works. But on a local machine called KALINDA with
printer HPL6, "\\KALINDA\HPL6 does not work". What a hell this vindoz ! )
