Your point being?
You need Quatro Pro to open the file, then print from it. You can not print the file as is.
To test if your printer can print Felix's files, he has to print it, but capture the output on a file, and then send this file to you. Then you send that file, raw, to the printer.
To what end?
Find out if Anton's printer prints it, ie, if it has Esc codes emulation (Epson printer language).
There was a small utility from pcmag, prn2cap perhaps, that captured print output from programs that refused to print to file.
I think I remember building that one, among others, typing from that read in the magazine into DEBUG, and only later managing to get the already built binaries on a CD via a magazine offer of some kind, probably subscription renewal.
I some how got the assembler "compiler", but else I typed it, I think. I also typed the editor "ted". You could use a modem and download it from the magazine BBS, but I had no modem, no phone of my own (student in a residence), and even if I had, it was a cross-atlantic phone call. Thus, type! -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
