TZF - Printer Help Needed

This is not a Topaz problem, but maybe someone
else has experienced this problem.

I have a client with a Mita Printer which will
print front and back on a piece of paper.  
Previously, the way I "control" my print
needs is to write all the text to a RichEdit
object (either visible or invisible) and then to
do a 
      RichEdit.Print('');
Of course this creates a new entry into the
Windows print queue which always prints to
the FRONT of the piece of paper.

Soooooo,  I tried to inject a   Chr(12)   into
the RichEdit.   This did not help.

Next, I found the programming manual for
this printer and tried to send it  the    
NEW PAGE command of the printer.  The
command was actually

    !R1 PAGE; EXIT; 

Of course, that string above came out
on the piece of paper.

Can anyone help me understand how to
print to a front/back printer and keep things
under control.

Thanks for any help,
