Hi Tracy;

You said GDI printers are "Host Based" printers that don't have internal micro-processor to interpret the printer codes.

What does GDI stand for ?

I am still struggling to better define which printers are compatible with "Esc Sequences" and which ones are not.

In your opinion, What is the BEST way to define Non-GDI (or Non-Host Base) printers?.

I already told a customer "not to" buy a GDI printer, but the Dealer had told her "This is a Panasonic and not a GDI!!", so then I got stuck, trying to explain to her why the darn printer doesn't work!!.

Thanks for your help.
