Does DOSPRN work with Vista, Windows7 and Windows8 32 bit?
We tested DOSPRN 1.80 and found it is compatible with Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 32 bit.
Does DOSPRN work with Vista, Windows7 and Windows8 64 bit?
Since Windows7/8/Vista 64 bit doesn't support DOS programs officially since we recommend to run DOS programs in the DOSbox emulator.
a) "DOSBox Mega Build 6" (
http://home.arcor.de/h-a-l-9000/) release with bugfixes is compatible with DOSPRN. You can download it here: DOSBox_Megabuild6-win32-installer.exe
b) Please take into account for printing DOS reports automatically you should change DOSBox configuration for saving LPT1 traffic directly into DOSPRN buffer file "C:\TEMP\PRNSPL"
c) Chose "Edit Configuration" DOSBOX option from the main menu and modify "parallel" section in the such way:
[parallel]
parallel1=file append:c:\temp\prnspl
parallel2=disabled
parallel3=disabled
d) Create C:\TEMP directory if it does not exist
e) Open DOSPRN window and enter "C:\TEMP\PRNSPL" value in the 'Spool filename (filemask)' entry field.
