Lprinting printer control codes?

[arnoldhf]

I found this under LPRINT:

• Note: Printer escape codes starting with CHR$(27) will not work with LPRINT and may produce text printing errors.
  

In my QBasic program I made extensive use of ESC for font changes, orientation changes, box shading (many times I did these on the same page as needed), etc., 
In QB64, chr$(27) sent to printer only results in a left arrow character. 

these are just some:

    LPrint Chr$(27); "&l1E"; 'move to top of page

    LPrint Chr$(27); "&l64F"; 'set text length to 64 lines
 
    10 courier10$ = Chr$(27) + "(11U" + Chr$(27) + "(s0p10.00h10.0v0s0b3T" ' courier 10 pitch
    LPrint courier10$;

    12 courier12$ = Chr$(27) + "(11U" + Chr$(27) + "(s0p12.00h10.0v0s0b3T"
    LPrint courier12$;

    17 courier17$ = Chr$(27) + "(11U" + Chr$(27) + "(s0p16.67h8.5v0s0b0T"
    LPrint courier17$;
   
    110 courierbold10$ = Chr$(27) + "(11U" + Chr$(27) + "(s0p10.00h10.0v0s3b3T"
    111 LPrint courierbold10$;
   
    210 courierbold12$ = Chr$(27) + "(11U" + Chr$(27) + "(s0p12.00h10.0v0s3b3T"
    211 LPrint courierbold12$;

Any way I can send "printer" command codes like these to the printer in QB64 or accomplish the same results in another fashion?

Thanks,
