>Exactly how to do this seems to be the problem. To get raw control characyers out, O was using ??? Chr(xxx) etc but this always seemd to go to the directly attached printer , rather then the network shared printer. The Report prints ok to the correct printer but I cant get the control characters out to the correct printer

You may try printing into a file - the control characters would go into it as well - and then sending that file to the printer using RawPrint (which should be somewhere in the downloads here).
