Since you aren't sending graphics, I'd bet that the characters from the Windows character set you're working on don't correspond to the internal character set for the KX-P2023. Panasonics docs used to be pretty good, so take a look and make sure that the character set viewed from Windows has the identical characters mapped to equivalent ASCII codes for the character set selected and active on the KX-P2023. Dollars to doughnuts the two don't match up. if that's the case, either chage the Windows font used to view the report on-screen to one that corresponds to the KX-P2023's, change the character set selected and loaded on the KX-P2023 using some set of control codes, or look into using STRTRAN to take the content of the file being sent to the printer to convert the viewed ASCII characters from the Windows character set into the correct characters for the Panasonic.
