Hi netlanders:
	I am trying to print VMS/VAX text files through a MAC SE 
running the MAC 240 emulator to an ImageWriter II on a Apple Talk network.
My problem is that I cannot set the tab stops on the ImageWriter. 
( I have no problems with selecting fonts or type size using escape sequences.)
I have tried the following escape sequences but nothing worked.

	esc(9,15,..,125.
	esc(9,15,..,125,.
	esc(,9,15,..,125,.
	esc(,9,15,..,125.

The ImageWriter II Owner's Manual is of no help as there is no example 
on setting tab stops.  
The tabbing controls sequence listed in the IW II Quick Reference Card
is as follows:

Function		Keystrokes			Code
Set horizontal tabs	ESCAPE(a,b,n,...,.		27 40,n,n,n,...,46
			abn = column number through nth column

What is wrong with my escape sequence?  Any help is much appreciated.

Ken
