First test by removing the File Delete line,
to be sure the clip.txt file is being created.

Also check your current "default printer" setting in
the Printers folder or with PowerPro: str = defaultprinter.

Exec Print depends upon the file association for the type
of the file you ask it to print.
In this case, Exec Print probably ran:

%SystemRoot%\System32\NOTEPAD.EXE /p %1

unless .txt files are associated with Ultraedit or another app.

Instead of Exec Print, try a direct command to a text editor
using its print command line switch, such as:
c:\pathto\ultraedit.exe /p c:\tmp\clip.txt

or

In a console window (or by using a dos command
as a parameter for cmd.exe or command.com)
you can send c:\tmp\clip.txt to LPT1

Not sure of the right command, it's been so long.
Maybe: copy c:\tmp\clip.txt LPT1
Maybe: type c:\tmp\clip.txt > LPT1


I don't there's any way to do it without a temporary file.
