SUMMARY

FoxPro for MS-DOS does not provide printer support for the HP Laserjet 4 series of printers. However there is a third-party product that provides this functionality.

MORE INFORMATION

LJ4PD.EXE, a replacement for the original GENPD.APP distributed with FoxPro for MS-DOS, is a third-party product written by Brad Schultz. This file includes support for the Laserjet 4 printer.

The following information is excerpted from the README file included in LJ4PD.EXE: 

   "This is an update to the GENPD project that ships with FoxPro 2.5.
   The GENPD project that I started with was the 2.5b version, which was
   the latest version released by Microsoft at the time I started this
   project (January 1994). My update will work just fine with Version 2.5
   or 2.5a, though."
