Hello friends, The Subject Line pretty much sums up the question. We're converting our printers to Infopint Extended mode and discovered that our programs send a ‘¢1B¢’ for the ESC character. It should be x'1B'. It appears that in the past under Basic mode the ‘¢' was ignored or used as a delimiter and the 1B was translated correctly to ESC. Conversations with IBM suggested that because we use "Old-Style Translation" while in Basic mode the ‘¢1B¢’ is being translated incorrectly now that we're using Extended Mode. We stopped using Old-Style Translation but the problem remained. We could recode all our print jobs (which Apps is none too happy about) or we could write an exit (which Systems is none too happy about) but I would prefer to think there is a third alternative. Any ideas on how to get Extended to translate the ‘¢1B¢’ to 1B?
