Here's the problem: A Toshiba P1340 printer was purchased for the
institute where I work. Those who purchased it assumed it would print
the higher ASCII codes (192 - ??) automatically. Well, it doesn't, and
everybody here wants it to. (We've got some statisticians and the like
who need Greek symbols, etc.) I already know of some software solutions
to this problem (e.g., Fancy Font) but I hear they're fairly slow. We
have an IBMPC-AT. Are there any easy hardware solutions to this problem?
I was hoping that there was an interface to go between the computer and
printer which would translate characters for the P1340. If anybody has
any ideas on this, I'd really be glad to hear them. If so, either
call or post a re: to this group on the net or send a response to me
through bitnet. Thanks in advance!
