Using the Remote Printer Console Main Program

Type C:\RPCX>RPCX and then press the Enter key to start the Remote Printer
Console main program.

The main screen will appear on your computer screen as shown below.

If bi-directional communication is enabled between your computer and MFC
when it starts, the RPC gets the current settings information from your MFC.
Otherwise, RPC shows its default settings. If you want to change settings, move
the cursor to the item you want and select it using the Enter and Cursor keys.
Then, press the Enter key to make the selected setting valid.

There are four sub menus. (See table below.) Select the sub menu you want by
clicking it with the mouse, using the cursor keys and the Enter key, or by
pressing the hot key commands for that sub menu.
