I have a project that printing directly to the printer is the best option. The generic printer driver is really inadequate. Graphics are not really handled well. PrintDocument works, but I'm not impressed. I'm an old school VB programmer and we used to simply use the "OPEN" command, then use "WRITE", 'WRITELN" or "PRINTLN". I wrote a few lines of code and when the code executed an error showed up that displayed a cryptic message about writing a class to handle the port call. MSDN is even more cryptic and provides zero by way of examples. I figure it can't be that hard to do. Does anyone have any solution? Thanks, Darren
