I'm new to Ubuntu and I have installed Microsoft Visual Basic using WINE but I am unable to print to lp0. I am using the following code:
open "/dev/lp0/" for Output As #1
In Windows I used to use the following:
open "Lpt1:" for Output As #1
This has worked for years in Windows. Tried both in Ubuntu and I get a runtime error 75.
Other programs can print with no problem. Checked printer device URI:parallel:/dev/lp0, access control allow printing for everyone. Even the VB6 complier can print. What am I missing?
