On an MS-DOS system, a standard DOS command is used to
transmit the data stream to the printer. For example, the
following commands transmit an ASCII file called FRMT1 to a
9406 printer connected to COM port 1.

MODE COM1:9600,N,8,1,P
COPY FRMT1 COM1

If the printer is connected to COM port 2, change "COM1" to
"COM2" in the above statements.
