serial port. My original intent was for people to use this to write their own
dashboard viewer, but you could just as easily use it for anything else

these settings in the Device Manager to make sure they're correct, and yet
when you finally get a handle to the port Windows decides you'd be better
off with 1200 baud, 7N1."

MF - USB to Serial communicating for a motor controller

"I am doing a senior design project. We are using an isight to do image cap-
turing of a resistor, then figuring out its' resistance through band color ident-
ification. We then have a conveyor belt system to transport the resistor to
an appropriate bin. We have found a unix script to capture information from
the isight, but we don't know to use my powerbook to write to a motor con-
troller."

"This should call the Print Dlg without showing it, returning the default
printers settings. The DevMode struct will contain the paper size.

Also you can use the EnumPrinters() function, with the PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT flag."
