I don't think that my advanced printer code was merged into the
master fork.<br>
<br>
This is what works for me:<br>
<br>
set lp20 enable<br>
set lp20 printer=lp07b<br>
attach -S lp20 form=graybar
image=c:\Users\timothe\Documents\GitHub\Run\Form_BG_Grayscale.jpg
c:\Users\timothe\Documents\GitHub\Run\Spool\SAM.lpt.pdf<br>
<br>
You probably just need the "set lp20 enable".<br>

Possibly a silly question, but does anyone know how to get the
printer to work on TOPS-10 on simh? I have attached a printer
files to the printer device but the printer and the spooler fills
up with output on TOPS-10, but the the printer stays offline in
TOPS-10 and I cant find out how to get it online.
