Hi,____I need to send some PCL commands to the printer and somehow R&R is stripping/filtering all my PCL commands. I tested my PCL commands with Wordpad and Word and they are successfully traansmitted to the printer. Does anyone at R&R know if V9.0 fixed this bug?____Thanks...__Sergio__Montreal, Canada

Version 9 (like all previous R&R for Windows versions) does not let you send escape codes to the printer.__Do applications like MS Word support this capability?____Kathleen__R&R Support

Duh!__You already mentioned that Word does support this.__Sorry for missing that.____I can add this as an enhancement request but my guess is that it will not happen any time soon.____Kathleen__R&R Support

My application was modified to call RRRun.exe (RR ver 6 for DOS), because your DOS RR runtime does not strip escape characters.____Please keep me posted! It^s 2-3 years I^m waiting for someone to fix this!____Good luck to you all!__Sergio____
