Is LPT1 the wrong nomenclature? I also tried it with the printer name,
You are having problem with the PRINT
command (via "LPT1"), not about
printing a big text file.
You sure that your text file
is really a plain-text file
without strange codes and/or
non-printable cahracters?
It does have those 3 symbols, the heart, the smiley, and the praying
hands. Aren't there some non-alphanumeric characters that were in the
original txt font. At any rate, it's called a text file and notepad++
displays them in color, and when Libreoffice office printed what was
called a txt file and pringed almost half of the it, it printed each of
those sympbols in black outline. (I have color turned off because red
is clogged, and I can't unclog it.)
That affects PRINT command.
