hello,

This epson sc photo820 prints fine in win98. But the customer has a dos program he needs to print from and is unable to. I tried printing the edit menus and also printscreen. NADA! I even tried *.txt >lpt1
as well as *.txt >prn still no results. I also checked the settings in the bios which indicate both epp and ecp enabled. If anyone has the 411 on this fix I would be very grateful. Also I was wondering if I should add anything to the config.sys or autoexec.bat files.

Thank You,
Dave

The printer is probably Windows only.

Probably won't print DOS program even in
DOS box.

Are you sure its uses parallel port? All the info I've seen states the 820 series is usb only which will be the reason its not working in Dos.

Product Spec sheets says USB and 1294IEEE
parallel.

Control Code Epson/P Raster & Epson Remote

I think this is windows only.

It has 6 color capability.
