WIS Printing

Hello, I have a WIS/ASRA access through Oracle Virtual Box but I am puzzled how to print anything out. Only thing so far I figured is to screenshot it and then print it. Is there any other way to print from it. When I chose print option it sends me to virtual printer and I can’t chose my printed instead.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have a similar setup. What I did was set up a folder which shares files between the virtual machine and host. Google "share files with virtual machine" and that will get you started. It took me a while to finally get a working setup. I use a PDF printer in the virtual machine to print PDF's to the shared folder on my main computer desk top . I use Nitro PDF creator 3. I would think any PDF creator would work though. You will have to install it into the virtual machine using add program in XP. I think I put the program on a disk or thumb drive and accessed it that way.

There may another way to do this but what I have works and allows me to extract PDF's to share via posts or hard copies for shop use.

Good luck,

Bob

hm, did smth help u? Bro, I had the same problem last year. My old printer had too many issues, and I could not work more with it. Luckily, I found these guys mrdepot.ca who offer office products such a toner cartridge and printer products for a nice price. On their website, u can choose which printer suits u the best and order it! Moreover, they have free and fast delivery! I would highly recommend them to my friends and definitely use them again. If u have time, u can check out this site! Maybe u will find smth useful for yourself!
