but i tried to use printString to create script in javascript and send directly to the printer.

but, a problem occured when i tried to send positionning orders in ESC/P to an epson FX-890..

this printer request print order with value caracters encoded.

javascript exemple gotox(x) and print val_x function

function testprinterx(x)
{
 var p = factory.rawPrinting;
 p.printer = testmatrixprinter;
 texte="";

nh=parseInt(x/256);
 nl=x%256;

exte+=String.fromCharCode(0x1B);
 texte+=String.fromCharCode(0x24);
 texte+=String.fromCharCode(dl);
 texte+=String.fromCharCode(dh);
 texte=texte+"val_"+x;
  p.printString(texte);
}

the problem with this function isn't in this function, she work perfectly. the problem is in printString function.

each caracters sended to printString with value  > 127 and value < 160  is converted to 80 : following , the exact list:

128,130 to 140, 142, 145 to 156, 158,159

each value in this list,  sended with printString is changed to 80!

it's unusable!!

i controled ALL: javascript encoded data, printers dump, and the only position of probleme is in the printString function who CHANGE VALUES SENDED!

WHY THIS FUNCTION CHANGE MY DATAS?

To put it more accurately, I daily send a list of files to be printed.The majority of files are printed normally.

However,sometimes a minor quantity of them (10 out 100, or 4 out of 1000, or 1 out of 15 files-it is random) are printed incompletely.

Part of the information is ommited.When I retry to print it seperately, it is always printed accurately and completely.

I face this problem twice a week and I need immediately your help in order to solve th problem.

The version of MeadCo I use is v7.1.0.60(x86).

Thank you for your helap in advance
