Command and Utility Summary
Prtsc
Purpose
The prtsc utility is a terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program used to
flush the print spooler when an application has failed to send an end-of-job
signal.
Syntax
prtsc
Comments
This loads the utility into memory. To flush the spooler, press
CTRL+ALT+PRINT SCREEN.
The prtsc utility is used to explicitly flush the spooler. Most applications
send a signal that is recognized by the spooler as an end-of-job signal. On
workstations with LAN Manager Enhanced, the time-out feature will flush
the spooler if no data is sent for a specified length of time.
If you use this utility, you cannot stop the workstation using the net stop
workstation command.
