You have the RAW option in the LPT printer directive in config.txt? Something like: LPT1 = SEL: "OKIDATA ML320_1 TURBO" RAW If so and it still doesn’t work: Submit your config.txt and #LPT1.asc files in the vDos directory. Jos Attachments:LPT3.asc (311 B)
LPT1.asc (311 B)
LPT2.asc (311 B)

Jos,
I changed back to the older version of Vdos because I couldn't get around the Windows 10/11 error. "Access is denied".
I suppose I have to solve that issue before I go any further. Right? or can I stick with the older version?

Those files don't contain any printer control codes, so you would have to manually select the pitch at the printer.
The line LPT2 = /SEL'OKIDATA ML320_1 TURBO' /RAW in the config.txt file you sent me is still off.
If you use an older vDos version (2015?, I only support the latest vDos version!

If I am required to use the latest version of Vdos, I will have to figure out how to get around the Windows error message, ""Access is denied" before I can consider going any further to solve my printer issues.

Maybe my problem is that the new version of Vdos was copied and not truly installed???

I don’t know about a “Access is denied” message. If you mean the vDos elevation safeguard, search for that on this forum.
vDos is fully portable and so doesn’t require installation (like DOS programs). The vDosSetup program is mostly for convenience. The alternative would be a ZIP file, cumbersome for many. And Windows is of course suspicious about copied (not installed) executable files from external sources.
