Hello,
All HP 4L, 5L and other "personal lasers" just use PCL
(printer control language) which is pretty standard and not changing for
years
so you may try the newest drivers that are using PCL
compatible from other HP printer or PCL driver that is built-in into
windows.
Lots of tips about using built-in printer drivers for various
old printers is included here:
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Thanks Ron. That's good to
know.
I guess I might face that issue since my HP 4L
is many years old.
But I haven't checked. Neither have I checked
on the graphics card. My Intel 64 is about that old.

In the first half of 2005, I bought a new faster
computer with the XP Pro64 operating system and an AMD 64 Dual
Processor.
The only minor problem has been the lack of
a 64 bit driver for a printer that I have.
The 64bit operating system and
computer have worked very well. Ron D

I should have added For ME it's not
worth the trade off yet.
But more skillful folks will surely
benefit. Undoubtedly we'll
have to move to Window 64.

Thanks Jim.
I'll do that and send you the most
recent note.
Don't know if strength in numbers will
help but it should! I don't have a count but it's a bit of revenue
for Gary.
On 64 bits, the trade off of a new
windows installation vs a stable desk top is not worth it yet.
Best regards
JOE

Please add me to the QP3 list as well. I use them for
my data source and I would appreciate an x64 plugin with more access
to the data provided in QP.

Hello there - Guess we have some common interest.
CANSLIM first.
I'm assuming you have Stock Picker
Pro installed with your QP3? It comes with the QP3 CD for no
additional charge.
SPP has dozens of filters, one of which is
called CANSLIM.
I've attached a screen shot and you'll see that
at least 2 of the data fields needed are not exposed by the AB
plugin that Tomasz has
provided us, like CQIE and CYIE. A
couple of options 1) if important enough maybe we could talk
Tomasz into adding
those 2 extra fields in the plug in, or 2)
ask someone who has the skills with the AB SDK could take the plug
in
and extend it for those 2 fields. I've never fired up the
SDK myself and not sure I have all the elements in my development
desktop
to do this. I run the CANSLIM filter on QP3
and get somewheres around 175-200 good stocks every day that form
a small universe of
stocks with good fundamentals and price
change momentum.
3) EPS is an array and if you plot it you'll see it changes
every quarter. So by either running an explore or a plot you
can
see if Ref(EPSarray,-66) works or not.
I'd take it outside the reference function just to be conservative
like
EPSArray = GetExtradata("EPS");
1) and 2)
Lots of good documentation in SPP, like the following that should
remove any doubt in your mind as to what the fields are.
We had a 'birds of
a feather' meeting at the Amibroker Conference in Houston and
there were about 12 QP3 users there. I have a distribution
list that I'm adding your name to and if you don't want to be
copied on some of our mailings please let me know and I'll take
you off it.
Dan Clark is very active and has been providing
information for the forum, to our group and feed back to the owner
of Quotes Plus, hopefully to some avail.
Hope this
helps.

Fund Earnings - % EPS
CYIE
Description: Continuous Yearly Improvement in
Earnings Per Share
The objective is to find securities with
year after year of continuous EPS growth for the past 3 years.. The
year is based on a trailing twelve month (TTM )
basis. The yearly difference between the most recent EPS
quarter and the same quarter a year ago is computed. This
backwards computation is done to arrive at 4 yearly EPS
values. If the difference for most recent yearly EPS value
is greater than the previous year (not equal) we add one to the
count. This type of backwards comparison goes on until one
of two events occur:
- All 3 yearly time periods have been processed or
- The security fails with a yearly comparison that doesn't
increase, the process will stop and the count is recorded
The process results in a number from 0 – 3. A
security with consecutive upward yearly progress will get a value
of 3 (3 years of steady upward

- I have a few questions about the fundamental data coming
out of QP3
- that I hoped someone here could answer:
- I'm pretty sure that sales and sharesfloat are reported in
millions
- (e.g. "1.2" means 1,200,000), and sharesshort are reported
in
- thousands (e.g. "1,200" means 1,200,000), but I don't know
about
- some of the others.
- 1) TTMSales? I can't think of any way to make this a real
number.
- 2) TTMEPS? It looks like it could just be normal, but I'd
like to
- make sure.
- 3) Earnings growth numbers (Y1, Y5, and projections)? One
would
- expect percentage (e.g. "12" = 12%), is this the case?
- One final question: Since "EPS" is an array, does that mean
I can
- get historical EPS by using Ref(GetExtraData("EPS"),-#)? If
so, I've
- tried that and it didn't seem to work. Is there another way
to do it?
- I'm trying to set up some sort of CANSLIM type of
exploration. So,
- if anyone has any ideas on that, I would really appreciate
the help.
- Thank you.
