XL2; Printer Simulation with the XL PC Simulation
XL200

The AMS Generic and the other Matthews drivers like the ViaJet and PM5100 already had the ability to connect to an MPERIA windows simulation via a Tcp/Ip Ethernet socket. They could also connect to an actual printer by specifying the printers IP Address and Port using command line arguments.

This change allows the PC simulation to connect to any printer, including bundle ticket printers, that support Ethernet Tcp/Ip socket connections.

New command line arguments have been defined that allow the IP address and Port for the bundle ticket printer be specified.

The command argument format for the bundle printer IP address, using the loop back address as an example is: bip127.0.0.1

The command argument format for the bundle printer port number, using 4567 as the example port is: bpor4567
