Yes it is a local printer
and i only need to check if printer on LPT1 ready.
Clipper function IsPRinter() under XP return always .t. becouse of spooling.
IF there is no printer or not ready program is blocked and waithing to finish printing.

I checked
http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/w-p/printin ... .php/c2949
but not going under clipper.
