      Figuring out this Printer issue with one of my sites.
      Looks like it may just be a Dip switch Setting issue..
      Or I need to upgrade Com Port Drivers ...
      Oh edit baud Rate to be exponentially higher than it is..

      Fun Stuff no?

        @WrCombs you seriously still have printers with dip switches??? Yow. I have some late 80s guitar pedals that have those. Was neat on a distortion pedal, sounds like a nightmare on a printer.

          Epson Tmt88 Receipt Printers and their cousin U220 s have dip switches.
          Point of sale is a different beast all together.

                I visit a site once a week. I must have left it on the desk there last week. Great to have it back, saves me having to look for another one.

                          Very retro - but that's the industry .

                                This will sound super-n00bish, but oh well. $args in PowerShell has changed my life. That is all. Continue with your regularly scheduled ML trolling, lurking, and posting.

                                How so?

                                I really only ever used it to check for extra arguments/parameters in my functions / scripts to output an error if the $args.count is higher than it should be, for example.

                                What are you using it for?

                                    @WrCombs Fuel dispensers are also still using RS-232. If you pull up to a fuel station, the ads playing on the screen are delivered on two wires -- kinda modem to modem. Honestly, our serial devices are very reliable, although you can lose the TV screens in fuel dispensers for all I care.

                                      I'm working on a script right now that will make use of start-job and using $args lets me pass the value of a variable between scopes. In this case, I'd be passing a value from earlier in the script into the start-job scriptblock.
