I'm updating an ancient program that prints checks in FP2.6 for Windows using ??? syntax to
access the printer directly. Problem is that whenever I issue SET PRINTER TO (nothing or LPT1 or File)
after this type of output FP GPFs.

I've tried a few variations, and using SET PRINTER TO, SET PINT ON ... SET PRINT OFF, SET PRINTER TO
and using ?? works, but unfortunately the printer driver gets in the way with this in terms of how
the text is spaced (not using the printer's defaults).

So, anybody know of a way to use ??? and *not* GPF everytime the printer is reset?
