Message-ID: <1991Apr3.094014.45946@vaxb.acs.unt.edu> Date: 3 Apr 91 09:34:14 GMT Lines: 11 Hello, I am a novice programmer. My question is: I want to understand how data is sent to printer(instead of screen) meaning that how the printer connected to IBM PC is used by say for example a text editor or a word processing program or a graphics program to print the buffer in a specified (column,row) format. I can do all these on screen. But I have no idea how to print all these. If my question is not clear enough please e-mail me. I would appriciate any sort of response. Thanks. -Shri p.s. I use C and assembly to write programs.
