Purpose

Prints a single file or a list of files.

Syntax

PRINT [/d:] [filename] [/options]

Remarks

PRINT allows you to enter between one and 32 files for spooling to the
printer. The files are output to the device in a spooled manner (while
the user performs other operations).

If PRINT is entered without any parameters, it displays all the files in
queue.

The first time PRINT is used, the operator is prompted for the device to
perform the operation:

Name of list device [PRN]:

The legal devices for printing are LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, COM1,
COM2, COM3, COM4, AUX, or PRN.

Options

/B sets 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 PRINT is run.

/C cancels only the file names listed after /C.
