Using UNIX System Commands
/c
Places the MS-DOS print command into cooked mode. In cooked mode, tabs are
expanded, and ^Z is interpreted as the end of the file. Graphics files will not print
while print is in cooked mode. Cooked mode may be required occasionally to
print text files containing tabs if neither the printer nor the application generating
the print job expands tabs.
/d
Temporarily disables clispool. Network print jobs will be submitted to the queue
but will not print while clispool is disabled. The printer can continue to be used
locally, however.
/e
Re-enables clispool. Network print jobs will now be printed.
Comments
To access the clispool command, first link to the appropriate shared
directory. This command is stored in the DOSUTIL shared directory on a
LAN Manager for UNIX Systems server. To perform this command, you
must first link to this shared directory as in the following example:
net use d: \\server1.serve\dosutil
Clispool is a MS-DOS terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program that runs
on the workstation to which a shared printer is connected. Clispool requires
that the MS-DOS print command be installed and loaded on the workstation
to which the printer is connected. To receive print jobs from a server,
clispool automatically links to a shared spool directory on the server.
Examples
To start the clispool program automatically and use the N: drive, add the
following line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
clispool /i /s:N
A shared printer is attached to your workstation and you want to use it locally. To
do this you disable clispool by typing:
clispool /d
