Hello.
I've just written a small application (using wx.Python) that emulates an
HP82440B printer trough USB/COM connection (the USB connection need
libusb-win32 filter to be installed).
The printout (images and text) goes on an RTF widget with copy/paste
capable.
The application is still in 0.1 alpha release, I've tested with hp50g
trough USB and hp49g(-) via usb-serial adapter and everything seems to
be ok.
If there are some people interested in using and making some tests, I
can prepare an exe using py2exe.

I'm just back from holidays give me some time to arrange something not
too bad too see and I'll put the file on a repository.
Or if you prefer I can put on the python sources under GPL license.

Hi,
thanks for the nice program. I've used the emulator from Jarno
Peschier. On Vista I had to go through the DOS-BOX. USB does not work.
In an attempt to turn the printer I get the error message "Unhandled
ERROR: <type 'exceptions.ValueError'> -No backend available "For me
only the serial connection is active. Instead of the Greek letter TAU
only print '_'.
Greetings Klaus

instruction on http://www.ingbranco.com/alfredo/HP82240Bemu.html)
For the characters to appear correctly you need HP48.ttf font installed
in windows font folder. I'm not sure but I remember it come with Debug4x.
Regards.
