You do have to disallow modification of the print string by the database or spooler. I use 'SETPTR ':lpu:',1024,80,,,1,NFMT,dest <printer>,BRIEF', where lpu is the logical print unit. The no format seems to work. I've seen other suggestions on this list for accomplishing the same. I get errors (UniData 6.0.9 on Solaris 8) when I set the character per line > 1024, though I should probably increase the lines per page.
Karjala >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/26/2005 5:02:58 PM >>> Good question: I downloaded Tom's demo image and entered the 2 code examples. The import went fine (I think) and what I get when I do a test print is: p10h12v0s0b4099T 1y3X Text next to logo 1 Text next to logo 2 Text next to logo 3 Text next to logo 4 Text next to logo 5 Text next to logo 6 Text next to logo 7 Text next to logo 8 Text next to logo 9 Text next to logo 10 This is better than the first attempt which refused to print (I caught a typo).
