And the command may as well be in the output of anything that can print a logo to it, captured into a file. Then including the file inside what you're printing may just mean one ...+filetostr("logo.prn")+...somewhere inside the report. I did that once (for a dot matrix printer), and had only to remove the printer reset codes from the beginning of the file, and the eject code from its end. Knowing your printer codes and having hex literacy may help here.
