I hope that you can convince your ImageStation >to do the same, going through its setup procedure. Thanks, Carl, for a good suggestion. It's true that by manipulating the EOF and Quote values I can obtain some improvements in my output, but it's still garbled. It seems that the quote characters serve their purpose well as far as transmitting the bitmap to the printer, but they're stripped out before the actual imPRESS image processor gets hold of the file. There's something peculiar about the ImageStation in particular; I can print the files just fine on our Imagen 3320.
