usb printer

Finally a modicum of success!!!!!!!!!!! 

Now is there a way to configure it so it doesn't give me a mile of blank paper at the end?

I've been getting a little cranky working on this problem.  Thanks for putting up with me!!!

I woul suggest making the subVI's front panel as small as possible and then experimenting with the settings. It has been a little while since I did this and I don't remember the details. There may be printer settings that might also need to be changed.

configured it for a 6 3/4 envelope.  Nice and short printout.  I'm using this to print a repair ticket.  Thanks!!!!!

Next Question:  Is there a way of specifying the print destination?

[Dennis_Knutson]

There is the application property called Default Printer. Is that what you mean?

[MikeBowen]

That would work.  The usage I am leaning toward would be to configure it so it always print to a printer device named Repair Ticket, and then it has to be configured for a certain size paper, etc.  Not very flexible.
