Re: [IUG] Getting an okidata printer to work with both Connexion and MilCAT

[Curt Stacey <cstacey at plum dot lib dot il dot us>]

We have it working correctly.  We used the Epson 24 pin compatible 
driver instead of the Okidata driver.  It worked better and eliminated 
the paper feed creep.  We set the Millennium label printer to local - 
Epson - text narrow, 40, 60, 0, no form feed, and the Connexion client 
to Epson - SL6 - Continuous - Print Offset, top: 0.0 and left: -.3 
centimeters.  Believe it or not it works!  CS
