There's also the opposite case of loading some standard functions with
the full interface and disabling it to run some stuff of your own in
compatibility mode, for which there's no obvous fix without outputting
an "enable" (and hoping the user hasn't disabled enable to get the
printer control command...)

I'm not sure it's worth a code fix, though a well-placed note might be
useful.
