I beg to differ. PFPT=ON can work, depending on the terminal emulator, the
printer driver, and the printer. The issue is how they all handle
"low-level printing", that is, printing a stream of bytes including escape
sequences. Some printers cannot handle this. Some printer drivers
(especially in Windows 10) cannot handle this. Some printer connections
(e.g., USB as opposed to network) may not be able to handle this.
And then there's the terminal emulator. It has to be able to a) pass along
low-level printing; or b) interpret it and convert it to Windows GDI
printing. AnzioWin and do a) or b); Anzio Lite can do only a).
