> When in Windows 7 I often use the print-region command from EMACS (23.2.1) to send text to the printer. My lpr-command is the name of simple .bat file I use which simply accepts the temp file name that EMACS passes it and tells NotePad.exe to print it.

Once it does happen, it happens consistently. I end up having to print manually: running NotePad, yanking from EMACS, pasting into NotePad and printing from the NotePad menu. The next day, the problem is gone. Kind of annoying. Any ideas?
Show us the "weird escape character" you get. Is it the same
character every time?
