DOS printing problem(with Canon MPC 400)

Comment:
I have a printer all-in-one (Canon MPC 400) and I have not a DOS driver for that (I use FoxPro 2.6 for DOS). Is there software that will print FOXBASE under DOS to my INK JET printer ? I have to print for CANON MPC400 just text , no graphics or something like that . If somebody have a driver or a software to solve my probleme , please help me (send it to danielmuruga@yahoo.com or tell me were I find it). Thank's in advance .

A dos program has a dos driver for each printer supported. Your printer is probably not one of these. Try saving the file to ASCII or TEXT like namefile.txt.You will print from dos these files easily using dos.Use COPY MYFILE.TXT LPT1 or PRINT MYFILE.TXT LPT1.Your printer is connected to the parralel port in this example.
