First I want to say thanks to everyone who has been so helpful to me in the
past - You guys/gals are great!

I need to know how to enter escape sequences to control the printer output
from a Cobol or Transact program.  First, let me tell you, I don't know how to
issue escape sequence commands at all, next I need to issue commands that will
compress the print to HP deskjets or laser printers.  These printers are
spooled but are slaved to the PC, so I need to know how to turn on the log
bottom function as well.

Is there a place, book, etc., that explains all the escape sequences
available?  And can someone explain how to enter these perplexing things?

Thanks in advance for all the support,
Gordon Wong

PS - How do I get on the mailing list of the hp3000-raven.utc.edu, so that I
too can recieve email messages??

My humblest apologies for my HP ignorance!
