I have a small problem concerning setting initial fonts on a networked 
printer. I have written small program that simply spits out escape codes to 
a specified printer port to tell that printer, for example, to any following 
jobs in a specific font. I had been using the CAPTURE command and fully 
specifying all parms. I them discovered the beauty of PRINTCON and created 
jobs for all printers. The problem is that I dont know how (or if I can) to 
not send any initial codes to the printer. Is is possible to do this from a 
PRINTCON configuration?

Regards,
  Eric
