Printing strings to a printer in Tradestation, does not print... help me out

["Bilo Selhi" <citadel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

list, 
got a question.
i am trying to print strings to my default printer
in 2000i from a system ( printing system orders as they come to 
a dot matrix printer ). the syntax is like this:

print ( printer, "test" ); 

i loaded a few bars in one day chart and 
it verifies fine and then brings up the print monitor but 
does not print anything...
i searched the knowledge base and there is nothing 
on that in there.

anybody done that, please let me know
- if it works
- if there is a bug
- if there is any special setup  or something. 

thanks.
