? is for printing in next line, but ?? continues printing where head of a
printer sits. Probably this is a solution?

What you should do always when printing is
?? cText,cCrlf
or
qqout(cText+ccrlf)
or as i have done in the past
xCommand ?13 [<list,...>] => qqout(<list> );qqout(chr(13)+chr(10))
with the above command you print like the below example:
?13 sometext //13+10 inserted for you
