Windows Terminal Emulators

I have been using NetTerm on various Windows flavors for a while and have just run into a problem with printer passthru (transparent printing) that I can analyse but not resolve.

The setup is a Epson TM60 POS Label Printer connected XON/XOFF via COM1 on a Win98SE system. This is controlled utilising ESC/POS commands to produce barcodes.

The problem is that the ALL the NUL codes (ASCII 00) in the commands are dropped before they get to the printer ie:

*set printable area motion units in page mode
move x"1B570000000070019F00" to tm60-line
write tm60-line no control.

results in 1B5770019F at the sticky end of TCP/IP, Windows, NetTerm, printer.

NetTerm is configured to print direct to the port (not using the windows driver/spooler) so my query is - WHAT IS STEALING THE NULS ??? -

BTW If I hang the TM60 off a RS232 port on the Server there are no probs.
The problem is not hardware related - several printers, Win systems tested.

Any thoughts anyone???
