Printer Controlling
When you have the system prompt, type one of the following commands:
print {filename} This invokes the print utility of your operating
system. The first time you call it, it will ask you
to confirm or change the output port. For details
about file spooling etc., see in your DOS Manual.
NOTE: This command executes a Form Feed automatically after each
document is printed.
type {filename}>prn This utility normally lists the contents of a file on
your screen, but in this case redirects it to the
printer, allowing you to interrupt printing with
CTRL - C, as you would do for the screen. This
command will execute an automatic Form Feed at
the end of a document only if it is included in the
document itself.
copy {filename}/B prn This command also sends the file to the printer. If
you send graphic or DLL (i.e. fonts) files to the
printer, remember use the optional "/B" parameter
in the command to override any End Of File
(=EOF =26D) command, which otherwise would
cause DOS to discontinue the data transfer.
NOTE: For more detailed information about these commands, consult your
MS-DOS manual.
