I looking for a XCMD or advice how to write one for the following task: To print A SINGLE LINE OF TEXT to an Imagewriter linked to AppleTalk. After having printed that single line, no form feed should occur, line feed only. There need not be any fancies about fonts or anything, just a single line of plain vanilla text. There is, however, one complexity: this printing should take place regardless of the printer selection made in the Chooser and to use this facility the user should not need to select the printer via Chooser. Can anybody help?

Well, in the Dartmouth XCMD stack there is a call that writes out a text string to either one of the serial ports. I don't know about Appletalk though.
