Printing from DOS

Printing from DOS
If you select Disable DOS Printing, you cannot print to
your Lexmark 5000 Color Jetprinter from a DOS
application.
To print to your Lexmark 5000 Color Jetprinter, make
sure this option is not selected. If prompted, restart
Windows before sending a DOS print job to your
Lexmark printer.
Printing to a file
To print a document that has been processed by the driver
and stored in a file (that is, printed to file):
1
Make sure you are in Windows, not native DOS.
2
Start your application from DOS.
For help, see your Windows documentation.
3
Create a print file using the "Print to File" function
of your application. For help printing to a file, see
your application user's documentation.
4
Use this DOS command to copy the print file to
the port where the printer is connected:
copy filename lptn /b
In the command example:
– copy is the DOS copy command.
– filename is the name of the print file you cre-
ated.
– lptn is the port where your printer is connected.
For example, lpt1 or lpt2.
– /b instructs the computer to send the data in
binary form.
Note:
Avoid using the DOS Print command to send a
job to the printer port. The Print command causes
printing delays.
