Looks like your printer needs a different printer driver -- instead of the
<CR> <LF> it seems to want to be seeing (^M ^J in control characters) its
getting just M and J (text characters) with never a line-feed or a
carriage-return to get it to flush its own buffer (i.e., to print) and
reposition its head for a new line. ... Hope this is on the mark.
