ronlowe Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I have set up Apache/PHP5/MySQL on my home computer running WindowsXP and have developed a package to deal with customer data and print labels. This all works fine on my home computer printing to an ordinary printer. I have set up the Apache/PHP4.4.2.7/MySQL on my business computer running Windows 98 and all aspects are fine until I try to print. I get a PHP error saying php_printer.dll not found. I have set the ini file with php_rinter.dll activated, I have tried various settings of the extension_dir and have put copies of php_printer.dll in all possible places. No joy. If I run PHP.exe the error message says "Unable to load dynamic library - one of the library files needed cannot be found. As far as I can see from the PHP manual, printer commands work from PHP 4. Any of you brainy folks got an answer? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/58222-printer-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronlowe Posted August 11, 2007 Author Share Posted August 11, 2007 The problem was solved by using printer_draw_text command. Works fine. Just in cae anyone else needs to know! The dll must be same version as rest of PHP and compatible with Windows version.
