Thanks Woody
The image is already converted to hex and the { symbol doesn't appear in it ... if I don't get any further today I will create an actual example to demonstrate it better. Although I am just considering going the Chilkat route and sending the data via the socket and making a networked label printer a minimum requirement for our customers.
Appreciate your input so far.
Regards
Chris.

Hi Chris,
I suspect that you have a "misbehaving char" in your hex data, something like Ctrl-Z, which terminates the standard DOS copy process.
If you need to transfer binary data to your printer, you could use this routine here:
??? ChrTran(File2Str("yourPicture.jpg"), "{", "{{}")

Done a bit more testing and capture the print job it looks like it only sends upto 16535 kB to the printer before it's then captured as a job? Make any sense?
