[TSM]

The last time i had to worrey about doing printer escape commands was on a nix box about 4 years ago. In that time i have not done it so have forgotten realy how to do it.

Basicly i need to send some custom commands to a ND2700 (dot matrix) printer to do some stuff.

This is the sequence: ESC [ P3 ; P0 SP r

P being just single value like 3 which gets converted to 33 hex etc..

I put it first into HEX, but our finance system only accepts decimal so i converted it to.

HEX: 1B 5B 33 3B 30 20 72
DEC: 027 091 051 059 048 032 114

I put this in a text file then do the folowing command:

COPY nd.txt LPT2 /b

All it does it print out the sequence instead of actualy doing what i want it to do (our printer can automaticly load diffrent types of paper into it).

Any ideas?
