Barabara, the voice of wisdom. I do not like to give up, but I guess it is going to be difficult to explain why a label with 3 pieces of information and a bar code took so long to convert ...

That's how it was written in DOS. They had to change the eprom to change the escape code into chr(123) {, because the generic printer driver does not allow escape codes, at least that is what I thouhgt. But now it turns out that this character cannot be sent directly to the printer neither.

Reminds me of my first lesson in BASIC

10 Print "This is loop"
20 goto 10

My mother used to define psychoanalysis as the occupation of looking for a cat in a dark room that is not there.

Why do I bring _this_ up?

Thanks and reguards, going to fill out that order for new printers.
