Does anyone know the specifics of why this command doesn't work on all
printers that are directly attached to a computer?
Is it more printer related?
More OS related?
or more related to the version of telnet being used?
Could it be related to different versions of PINE?  (used to work on an
older version, now it doesn't)

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

We have experienced no problems with this in ANY version of Pine. Rather, it
is an issue of how well your telnet (terminal emulation) program supports
passthrough print. The TELNET.EXE included with Windows has NEVER supported
it, as far as I know. Quality of support varies greatly among various
available telnet programs. 

I invite you to try out Anzio Lite, which supports it quite well:

The only telnet where this works for me is SmarTerm.

Ditto for us.  We've never had any problems, except user error :)  Our
personal favorite is Netterm, which is at

I also like another package called CRT, at www.vandyke.com.
