Just an addendum to the question I asked earlier (see below)
The k2G is an ESCP2 character which does some sort of combination of
linefeed, carriage return and form feed. Probably an carriage return
before starting a new job.
This is definitely being put in by the JetDirect boxes.
Our printers being older ones don't understand this character set and
explicitly print the k2G instead. I am pretty sure this is the reason
behind the problem. I still need a solution.
Is anyone printing to older printers via jetdirect?

Hi
We are setting up printing to remote lineprinters through HP JetDirect
servers both single and multiple port. We have the problem with our
testprints that the first three characters of the job printed are k2G.
This is offsetting what is left on the line and unacceptable for
pre-printed stationary. It is happening when printing to Citohs and I
think Genicoms.
Anyone had this problem or have any ideas.
TIA
