Thanks. The vendor treats the printer like M$ does VFP. They bought it too! I had to go to a generic B-Code site to download a manual for it. That manual just goves over the codes and what they do.

All I want to do is pass it a fine and it digest that file and spits out ink on paper. Getting the door open has been tough.

Thanks again.
