  • Use braces { } to send printer codes or ASCII characters.
    For example,
    	
??? Chr(27) + Chr(65)

??? "{27}{65}"
    As Jim suggested, you can use Chr(123) instaed of "{"


    >I have to send an instruction to the printer and I always got "Syntax Error". It looks strange, maybe a BUG. Take a look:
