Hi,

The Acars function is not operational yett.
It's still under construction so we have to wait a little more until Marty gives it a go.

Any news on the 64-bit driver?
All my maschines are win7 64-bit, so I would love a 64-bit driver for such a printer.

Hi Guys,

I've been reading this thread with interest as I have also purchased WH-E19 WH723 Barcode Thermal Printer, firstly it didn't arrive with a manual which at first seemed logical enough but now I'm not so sure, secondly I'm using 5v 4a adapter, question: all I'm getting is a very dim blink, does this sound right ? or have I been sold a duff unit.

Many thanks in advance

Andi

Hi,

It should print with the power supply you use.
If it's connected to the power, you can see a green led that is blinking and yes, it's a dim light you will see.

So I think your printer should be ok.
If you install it as I explained on page 2 of this discussion, it should print.

Regards.

Hi all ACARS equipped simmers,

While you wait for Marty you should take a look at Hoppies ACARS which is a freeware standalone program.
Originally made for "Wordflight" and the PS1 747 simmers, but now works with FS too.
It can do all sorts of cool ACARS tricks and its print outs is directed to LPT1 so you need to install your shiny new USB printer as a "network printer" and do a redirect.

Also the famous TopCat program will serve as your dispatch station and format everything neatly to 80 chars/line
Loadsheet, weather, take off data etc. etc.

"Integration" in hardware CDU:s can work if your CDU has a Windows screen and you dedicate a switch that can change focus between Hoppies ACARS and your CDU program.

ACARS can be downloaded at: http://www.hoppie.nl/acars/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
You will ONLY need to d/l the "All in One" setup, install and on the website request a code to join the ACARS network and get TopCat online.

All necessary infos can be read at Hoppies website, and I cannot give more info's than the above mentioned, so please do not pester me with questions - R.T.F.M.
