Dan: The whole problem is because these invoices print letter quality
bold and wide in the heading. Can your print class do that by sending
the print codes before the text?

My remaining client has two Okidatas, which print three different
forms, and have been for many years. (The form printing uses @...say
to print.) Our problems began when one of the OkiDatas became a
network printer, using some kind of dongle, so forms could be printed
from two different workstations.
The problems turned out to be from the Windows print drivers adding
things like line feeds and form feeds, which didn't happen when we
just sent the output to LPT1. Our solution was to use a library
called Rawprint.vcx for the network printer, which bypasses the
Windows printer drivers.
I always "print" to a temp file, then send it to the actual printer
via one of three methods in a "PrintUtil" class:
.SendtoPrint(TxtFile,PrintName) sends to a Windows (USB) printer
.SendtoLPT1(TxtFile) sends text to the parallel port
.RawPrint(TxtFile,PrintName) sends to a network printer.
Google "Rawprint". It's free and it works. If you'd like, I can send
you my PrintUtils class.

Michael: The control character sent with the ??? is to put the printer
in letter quality mode. Without it it does not print properly. The code
has to be sent with a ??? and not an @say. What I want to do is
suppress the blank pages but still send the code.
