Changing print settings
for DOS applications
If possible, use options in your

Program, see “Using the
Control Program” on page
10.

on the DOS Printing tab,
they apply to DOS print
jobs only. When you
make changes on other
tabs, they apply to all
print jobs.

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

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’s 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 con-
nected. 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.
