Hiho-

We're using RH ES AS 3.0 and
have declared a bunch of HP jet direct print queues, all connected to
dot matrix printers
using Extended Systems PocketPro print servers. These work well
but for one PrintTek triple form
printer (as Murphy would have it- the $checks$ forms) which
for some reason receives CRFF
as the first 2 chars and needlessly (well, actually PAINFULLY) spaces
the form to
the wrong place then starts printing. The only way this worked correctly
(at least so far) was by defining the queue driver to be 'Raw Print Queue'
which seems to have no changeable options or allow a filter, which I
don't know how to implement anyway. Any ideas
on how to bypass at least the FF would be greatly appreciated.

tks,
Bill Edison
