PCL Printing Issue

$

Hi Guys/Gals,

 

Bit of help if you can.

I have a Win Mobile program that prints from a Handheld device to a wireless printer, just got a brand new P1120w Laserjet to test and I am trying to make it print using the PCL commands, but it simply refuses to, I can print to an Epson unit (and many other types) using Escape P sequences but the HP unit refuses to work.

 

I defined some variables:-

pCodeINIT = Chr(27) & "%-12345X@PJL"& Chr(13) & Chr(10)

pCodePCL = "@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PCL"& Chr(13) & Chr(10)

pCodeRESET = Chr(27) & "E"

pCodeEND = Chr(27) & "%-12345X"

 

Then I construct a sequence string:-

message = pCodeINIT & pCodePCL & "This is some Text"& pCodeRESET & pCodeEND

and send message to the printer, the lights flash as it switches into PCL mode but NOTHING is printed.

 

Anybody got any ideas, to save my hair from all being pulled out.
