Check the printer manual, what codes you need to turn off NLQ. On the Epson printers I used, the code was chr(27) + "x" + chr(0) to turn NLQ off, chr(27) + "x" + chr(1) tu turn it on. (chr(27) is the ESC code.)
Typically, I would send the report to a text file, read it back with FileToStr(), and give a command similar to:
??? PrinterCodes + FileInRam
In this case, PrinterCodes would include a general reset code, the code above, code to select CPI, and perhaps a few more, like specifying page-length.
