Printer Works Unexpectedly

Hi,
I found some code on the net which showed how to print text on a page. I modified it for my use, but i encountered a problem: when the function printed sth, it wrote some weird characters at the end of each line. I can't solve the problem, i need help. Here is the code:

Code:

bool PrintTextPRN(char* outputText)
{
	PRINTDLG pd;
	ZeroMemory(&pd, sizeof(PRINTDLG));

	// populate it
	pd.lStructSize	= sizeof(PRINTDLG);
	pd.hwndOwner	= NULL;
	pd.hDevMode		= NULL;
	pd.hDevNames	= NULL;
	pd.Flags		= PD_USEDEVMODECOPIESANDCOLLATE | PD_RETURNDC;
	pd.nCopies		= 1;
	pd.nFromPage	= 0xFFFF;
	pd.nToPage		= 0xFFFF;
	pd.nMinPage		= 1;
	pd.nMaxPage		= 0xFFFF;

	if (!PrintDlg(&pd)) {
		MessageBox (NULL, "A printer error has occurred.\r\n\r\nPlease check the print cable and\r\nmake sure the printer is turned on.", "Print Error!", MB_OK);
	}

	// declare a DOCINFO structure and populate it
	DOCINFO di;

	di.cbSize		= sizeof(DOCINFO);
	di.lpszDocName	= "Glowdot Port Scanner";
	di.lpszOutput	= (LPTSTR)NULL;
	di.fwType		= 0;


	
	int leftMargin  = 1 * GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, LOGPIXELSX);
	int rightMargin = 1 * GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, LOGPIXELSX);
	int topMargin = 1 * GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, LOGPIXELSY);
	int bottomMargin = 1 * GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, LOGPIXELSY);

	int leftOffset   = leftMargin  - GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALOFFSETX);
	int rightOffset  = rightMargin - (GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALWIDTH) - GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALOFFSETX)- GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, HORZRES));

	int topOffset   = topMargin  - GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALOFFSETY);
	int bottomOffset  = bottomMargin - (GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALHEIGHT) - GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, PHYSICALOFFSETY)- GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, VERTRES));

	int prnWidth  = GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, HORZRES) - (leftOffset + rightOffset);
	int prnHeight = GetDeviceCaps(pd.hDC, VERTRES) - (topOffset  + bottomOffset);

	TEXTMETRIC tm;
HFONT hfont = (HFONT)GetStockObject(ANSI_FIXED_FONT);
int yChar;

SetMapMode(pd.hDC, MM_TEXT);
SelectObject(pd.hDC, hfont);


GetTextMetrics(pd.hDC, &tm);
yChar = tm.tmHeight;
int xChar=tm.tmMaxCharWidth;

int HeaderHeight   = 0;
int LinesPerPage   = (prnHeight - HeaderHeight) / yChar;




	StartDoc (pd.hDC, &di);
	StartPage(pd.hDC);


	char thisLine[80];
int i,j;

for (i = 0; i < strlen(outputText); i++) {
	for (j = 0; j < 80; j++) {
		if (*outputText == '\r') {
			thisLine[j] = '\0';
			outputText += 2;
			break;
		} else if (j == 80) {
			thisLine[j] = '\0';
		} else {
			thisLine[j] = *outputText++;
		}
	}

	if (((i - 1) % LinesPerPage == 0) && (i != 1)) {
		// We should start a new page first
		EndPage(pd.hDC);
		StartPage(pd.hDC);
		TextOut(pd.hDC,leftOffset, (yChar * i + HeaderHeight + topOffset)
                    - ((i - 1)/LinesPerPage)*prnHeight, thisLine, lstrlen(thisLine));
	} else {
		TextOut(pd.hDC,leftOffset, (yChar * i + HeaderHeight + topOffset)
                    - ((i - 1)/LinesPerPage)*prnHeight, thisLine, lstrlen(thisLine));
	}
}


	EndPage(pd.hDC);
	EndDoc(pd.hDC);

	DeleteDC(pd.hDC);


	return TRUE;

}

> outputText += 2;
This will mess up your strlen() condition in the loop.
Besides, calling strlen() every time is inefficient.

> else if (j == 80)
Given your loop condition of <80, this will never happen.

Which suggests you're not putting a \0 in the right place, and your lstrlen(thisLine) calls are wrong as well.

Oh, and you might do ZeroMemory on di and tm as well (perhaps)
