I'm trying to send some control codes to a Lexmark 4226 dot matrix printer, eg. ESC W1 to set double width or ESC W0 to cancel it again. The problem is the ESC character (1Bh). I can get it to appear in the outfile using a printer file that was modified with RPLUNPRT(*NO). But as soon as I send it to the printer, the 400 complains about unprintable characters and puts the spool file on hold. Is there anyway to get this control sequences to the printer?
