Options
The
/B
option allows the user to set the buffer size. The default buffer size is
512 bytes. A larger buffer size causes print to operate faster. The maximum
buffer size is 32k bytes and the minimum size 256 bytes. This option is only
allowed the first time
is run.
The
/C
option cancels only the file names listed after the
/C
command.
The
/F
option allows the user to set the maximum number of files to be
queued up at one time. The default number of files is 10. The minimum is 2
and the maximum is 32. Support for more files is often useful when using wild
cards in file names. This option is only allowed the first time
is run (or
until the next system reboot).
The
/P
option causes all files listed after this option to be submitted for
printing. This is the default for filenames encountered on the
command line.
The
/T
option cancels all the files from the print queue (list). Think of this as
a terminator.
The
/H
option will display the help screen.
Examples
puts three files into the print queue. The first file will start being
printed after the command ends.
PRINT FILE1.TXT FILE2.TXT FILE3.TXT
The file FILE2.TXT will be removed from the print queue. All other files in
the queue will print normally.
PRINT /C FILE2.TXT
All files in the print queue are canceled. Printing may continue for a short time
because of the buffer in the printer.
