Printing to HP9000

[Canadianweasel]

I'm a network person for a government agency, and I'm more of an NT person than a unix, so forgive me if I don't explain things entirely well.

We're attempting to print out bills, but when the bills are printed it also prints partial escape codes. At the side of the bill we'll see things like 'b4099t' or 'p909x291Y'. I understand that b4099t refers to a courier typeface, but that's as much information as I've been able to filter through using google. As well, the formatting although not bad is still not correct.

Suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks

If it's printing that, either it's not being put in correctly by the application or escape sequences are being lost along the way.


Try it with netcat and see if it helps:

If not, it's your app or the hp itself is defective. Tony Lawrence
