This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
There're no generic escape codes for printers. Each printer, besides supporting manufacturers printer language, may also have aditional Emulation modes. They're listed usually in the printer manual.

>I have developed a small utility which takes as parameter the text file generate in a FPD application and then sends it to the local printer. Works well except that I cannot use the printer's escape codes for making the font bold, 5 cpi, 17 cpi, etc.

>Can anybody point me to generic printer codes that USB printers use? The printer documentations I have seen are very minimalistic and do not have any technical docs, nor do the hardware guys know anything more than plugging it in.
