Works great. the logfile cannot be accessed (and viewed) as long as the emulator is running, but that is a minor problem.

The printout now is nicely aligned – much better than before. It seems to come close to the printout of a real 19C. Especially if you use a different printer font: as already mentiod I found a very nice one (Receiptional Receipt) that matches the real thing quite closely. The only remaining problem with most fonts (i.e. all I tried except Courier New) is the line spacing. This could be solved by the settings in the current KML file: simply divide the height of the print area by the number of print lines (...+1) and set the line spacing to this value. So if the printer area is 180 pixels high and 9 lines are printed, the line spacing is 180/(9+1) = 18 pixels.

You really should try this special printer font. I think it looks great. ;-)
