Re: R: Sending escape codes to an Hp4050

[Raul A Jager <raul@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have used an option USRASCII (or something similar) in the printer 
file, and the program did the conversion to ascii and inserted all the 
escape codes.  The output comes out beatifull.  The program is still 
working every day after a few years, but I dread the time we may have to 
do some maintenance on it.
