Hi Modi

Every single info sent to printer is modified for the windows printer driver installed for your printer.. It exchange that info by graphical information

The best and easier stuff to be done is to install a new printer driver for your printer.. its a driver named GENERIC TEXT ONLY.. This one is part of your Windows..

After that, all characters sent to your printer will be capted as ASCII code (not as graphical info) and all ASCII command will be well capted..
