Please try this. Open the printer script file in question and edit it with notepad or similar TEXT editor.

Place the following code on the very first line of the script.

code:
? 'Hello... The script is open.'
? 'Please press a key to continue'
get $

Then move, or copy this script file to C:\TEST
If the folder does not exist, create it.
Then copy KIX32.EXE to the same directory.
Then type the following while in the C:\TEST folder in a DOS prompt.

KIX32.EXE PRINTERS.KIX (or what ever the name of the script file is)

Then let us know what you get.
