My VFP program has been working fine with an Okidata 320 printer for years under Win95,98,NT. I use generic text driver and tell it no ff, continuous forms.
BUT, using same code in Win 2000, and telling it's driver no FF, continuous forms... shoots a FF at the beginning of the printout.

I SET PRINTER OFF, then SET PRINTER TO NAME "Invoices" (matches the printer name in Win 2000)
Then SET PRINTER ON
When I issue the first ESC command, it form feeds. (as in ??? CHR(27) )

I've tried everything i can to prevent this, with no luck.

If I DON'T use the ESC code to set it to 12cpi, etc, it seems to work ok.

Any other suggestions?
