trying to format a new report with basic sql query as csv output but output file full of unrequired data ...

eg first few lines of output file ...

%-12345X@PJL JOB
@PJL COMMENT MS PCLXL NT Driver
@PJL SET STRINGCODESET=UTF8
@PJL JOB NAME="xxx03a"

i have read the docs & googled etc
tried several parameter configurations ...
current parameters

DESTYPE = File
DESFORMAT = DELIMITED DELIMITER=, CELLWRAPPER="
DESNAME = C:\xxx\InterfaceFiles\xxx03.csv
MODE = Bitmap
PRINTJOB = No

parameters entered into system parameter config form

bug, glitch, gotcha or incorrect configuration ?
