HP Display Changer v2.00 by Goo <goo@netactive.co.za>
-----------------------------------------------------

This program is the result of a post in alt.shenanigans.
Using Hewlett Packard Printer Job Language, this program will temporarily change the LED
display on certain HP Laserjet printers. (Reset printer to restore)

** It will NOT work on HP Laserjet 4, and HP Laserjet 4ML printers. **

What's New?
-----------

Not much actually. I've made the dropdown boxes look vaguely like an HP LED Display :
I've fixed the destination so that you no longer have to put quotes around a UNC.

Info
----

Although this program was written under Windows 98, it has not been properly tested on it.
It has only been successfully tested on Windows NT - (Across a network to an HP Laserjet 4000). Weird, I know.

I have NOT tested local printing.
This program uses DOS printing routines because Windows printing routines keep screwing up the ESC character
that the PJL code requires. What that essentially means, is that when you select your destination, it can be
practically anything, even a filename. (File would be located in the root of the C drive.)
The program essentially "types" a text file, redirecting it to the destination. (type filename >>lpt1).

The program requires the use of Windows 95/98's command.com or Windows NT's cmd.exe. It will attempt to detect
what version of Windows you are using, and it will display the version at the bottom left corner of the window.
If your path statement is screwed up, and command.com / cmd.exe cannot be found, try placing a copy of the file
into the same directory the program is located in.

If your destination is a UNC, eg \\Server\Printer, try enclosing the destination in quotes, like 
"\\Server\Printer". If any of the names has a space in it, you must DEFINITELY use quotes. 
eg, "\\Server PC\HP Printer"
