I am attempting to use GhostScript 9.04 with .NET (gsdll32.dll) to convert and then output a pdf file to a TallyGenicom 6312 Line Printer. I’ve dug through tons of documentation but no matter what parameters I throw at GhostScript, and what type of output I try, I always wind up with a garbled mess of junk values as my output.
If I open the PDF in Windows and print direct to the printer, I get something that at least resembles my document, though it’s somewhat unpolished. This is an automated process, so manual printing from windows is not an option.
The printer is on Epson FX-1180 emulation, so my expectation is that some form of ESC/P should work. Either I’m doing it wrong, or I’m wrong about that entirely.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Its a bit hard to know what advice to offer, since you haven’t said what you’ve already tried. If it were me I would try the mswinpr2 device which works in a way which is pretty much independent of the printer. You can find information on this device here :
/ghostpdl/gs/doc/Devices.htm#Win
If you can print from Acrobat then that should work, but obviously I don’t have your printer to test with.
