I created download #
9991, precisely to help in printing to dot-matrix printers, in text mode. If your printer doesn't use the Epson commands, you may have to adjust the printer codes (read the printer manual).
You can also prepare the entire text file, then send it to the printer. If you create the file report.txt, the command is basically like this:
??? lcPrinterCodes + FileToStr("report.txt")However, the download I mentioned gives you lots of additional options, for example, print headers and footers at different levels (i.e., when different break expressions change).
