Direct printing in 2.6/XP

[Newtonm]

Our client has upgraded his POS check out to XP from 9x. We send escape sequence and print direct to port using this code...
SET CONSOLE OFF
SET DEVICE TO PRINT
SET PRINTER TO
SET MEMOWIDTH TO 60
??? " "
??? CHR(27)+CHR(64) && CLEAR PRINTER BUFFER AND RESET
ROW = 1
COL = 0
@ ROW,COL SAY DATE()...etc.

We get a GPF on foxw2600.esl and Foxpro quits.

Works perfectly in all 95/98 boxes.
Any suggestions.
TIA

Try using:

SET CONSOLE OFF
SET PRINTER TO NAME "Whateveritis"
SET PRINTER ON
SET DEVICE TO PRINT

Maybe try using ?? instead of ??? too.
