Parameter
filespec[s]
Specifies the file or files to be printed. You can explicitly specify up to six file
specifications as input to the PRINT command. RT–11 prints the files in the
order in which you specify them in the command line. If you specify more than
one file, separate the files by commas.
You can also use wildcards in the file specification. In this case, RT–11 prints
the files in the same order as they occur in the directory of the specified volume.
If you omit the file type for a file specification, RT–11 assumes LST.
Description
You can use the SPOOL or the QUEUE utility to manage the printing process, freeing
your terminal for your use while your file is printing. See the Introduction to RT–11
for information on using the PRINT command with SPOOL. See the chapters on
these utilities (QUEUE or SPOOL) in the RT–11 System Utilities Manual for more
information.
KMON assigns precedence to SPOOL for any PRINT commands, so be careful if you
run both QUEUE and SPOOL.
