Hi,

I am using the same drive and printer, however I am using a report form to print receipts. It is working wonderful, in fact I tried using @say but with proportional fonts if failed badly. I suggest if you want to continue using @say or ? techniques you should consider NOT using the printer driver and using the Generic driver instead. When you want to kick the cash drawer switch to the Start driver and issue the chr(07).
