GOAL:
How to use printer control codes (PCL codes) with ASCII, OCTAL or HEXADECIMAL values?
FIX:
Use the CONTROL option of the PUT statement. For example:
OUTPUT TO PRINTER.
PUT CONTROL "~55". /* HEXADECIMAL EXAMPLE */
PUT CONTROL "~033". /* OCTAL EXAMPLE */
PUT CONTROL CHR(13). /* ASCII EXAMPLE */
For specific control codes reference your devices user manual or their website
