1 To send the PRINTEST.PS file (you just created) to the printer, type
copy /b printest.ps lpt#
↵
where # is the port number (1 to 3).
» Note: If the computer has more than one parallel port, they’re probably labeled. If
not, check the computer documentation for the LPT port names.
2 If the printer and PC are communicating, a blank page ejects from the
printer.
If a blank page doesn’t eject and you typed the file correctly, you may want to
check your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to see if LPT1 (the parallel port) is being directed
to COM1 (the serial port):
a If the AUTOEXEC.BAT file contains the line
MODE LPT1:=COM1:
delete it.
b Then type
MODE LPT1:,,P
↵
The “P” represents infinite retry and it tells the PC to send print jobs until the
printer accepts them.
c Restart the PC and retry the communication test.
Refer to your DOS documentation for more information.
