Message-ID:Date: 21 Jun 88 02:02:57 GMT Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J. Lines: 22 I have an annoying problem. From within a Turbo Pascal V4.0 program, I am trying to use the IBM Graphics Printer's high-resolution graphics mode. All works fine after sending the correct escape sequence for this mode (ESC "L" n1 n2, n1+n2*256 = # of graphics bytes), but whenever I try to send ASCII 26 (control-Z, also EOF) as one of the graphics bytes, it never gets to the printer; and when I send *two* or more of them, the printer leaves graphics mode in the middle and prints, as you would expect, garbage text. HELP!!! Has anyone out there had a similar problem? Can anyone fill me in as to how he/she got around the problem? To answer a question which some of you may ask, I also tried this graphics print straight from DOS using a disk file and DOS "copy" with the same results. Any ideas? -- Tom Palmieri `Amigo' =============================== Mail Addresses ================================ UUCP: {backbone}!rutgers!aramis.rutgers.edu!palmieri ARPA: palmieri@aramis.rutgers.edu ===============================================================================
