Have you tried PRINT CHR$(9);"Z" after the PR#1? This "Ctrl-I Z" "zaps" the Ctrl-I interpretation logic in the slot-1 firmware. If you *don't* do that, then every time you happen to get a Ctrl-I (byte value 9 or 128+9), the firmware will try to interpret the following character or characters as a command! This would leave you "short" a few characters as far as the printer is concerned, so your program would end while the printer was still expecting the last part of the graphics data. > William K.
