You've all been waiting for the driver for the IBM 4201 Proprinter in
IBM's GKS. Guess what? You had it all along. vdiprgra.sys (for the
standard graphic printer) works on the Proprinter also IF you turn on
switch 6, auto CR after LF. Switches are under the cover at the left
rear of the machine. Auto CR has no effect on most other software --
unless your program does a LF and expects to end up in the middle of the
line.
This was tested on "circut.exe", the GKS demo program that has a print
feature, and on some locally written software. I have heard that a simi-
lar maneuver also works on IBM-compatible Epson printers.
My boss pulled this in from a bboard.
