Would that work with the Castle USB card for the RPC as well? Revin Kevin on 17/4/03 9:23PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

More to the point, will it work with the Simtec one? The Doctor on 18/4/03 7:53AM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

more to the point - will it work at all? tim_firmager on 18/4/03 7:17PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

I don't know about the Castle USB card, but I'd guess that Printers 1.67 is far more likely to support it than the Simtec podule, which uses a different API. -- Simon Wilson, Boulder, Colorado ksattic on 18/4/03 7:18PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

Of course the Simtec card already supports plug-and-play USB printing and has done since release, although at the moment one does have the hardship of typing a short string into a writeable field. There is a press release to go along with this and associated product to do with multiple USB printers, which will be made over the next few days. Works out of the box even with Printers 1.53.... stdevel on 18/4/03 8:26PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

Send the press release to TIB first! monkeyson on 18/4/03 9:04PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]

No fear there. TIB will take at least a week to publish it :P -- Spriteman. Spriteman on 18/4/03 10:56PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ]
