>I've just run into some code in a client's application that sends a formatted string (the concatenation of multiple reports and documents) directly to a printer using ???. The process has worked without modification for over 20 years and the client is not willing to give the functionality since it is an integral part of their business. Lately, under certain conditions only the first page of output will be printed. I guess I'm surprised that it still works at all. However...what is a good replacement for "???" in this situation? Obviously, we need to bypass the printer driver.

Sometimes the easiest is to create a text file, and the use "Copy file somefile.txt to printer".
