Dear J.M. I'm not sure, do you have already reports running this way?
- If yes: There should be no difference between local Windows and TS. But I have never tried, perhaps there are also difference in the behavior of Citrix and MS RemoteControl. Is your problem to not have access to LPT1? - If no: You have to think about the sequence of the controls. You are able to send the sequence with output filename; Write ...; Output Screen; copy filename lpt1 But as soon you print a report, the report itself will overwrite the settings by sending RESET and the printer controls. So it must be very special commands at a printer which are not influenced by report-printing. Regards Adrian > -----Original Message----- > From: J.M.
