Note to that if you want to get "Fancy" with bold or other types of controls, you will need to research the actual command for each printer. (Every Manufacturer has different code, and even within manufacturers, each printer! That's one of the beautiful helps of MS Windows - it abstracts all of that for you.)

Just a quick help that you may already know: If you use a semi-colon (;) it will place the text right next to each other. Commas (,) include a tab.
