Report output destination

The

Printer Filename

option specifies a destination for the report

output. You can print to either:

■

a parallel port (LPT1 or LPT2), or

■

a disk file

You must use the DOS file naming convention to enter a file name or a
full path name for a disk file. The

Printer Filename

field allows

you to enter up to 20 characters: 8 characters for the file’s name and the
remaining 12 characters for the path. If the file name were

PRINT1.DOC

and the path were

C:\AM2000\

, the entire filename would be

C:\AM2000\PRINT1.DOC

You should include the full DOS path even though it is not required.

■

If a non-reserved name is specified, the report is saved to a disk file
and may be accessed later.

■

If a full DOS path is not included, the file is placed in the current
directory.

■

If a filename is specified and you press

to save the definition,

a file is created on disk with the name specified and zero bytes
assigned. This is done to verify that the definition is correct and the
file can be created.

■

If the filename

NUL

NONE

is used, the output is discarded.

■

If no printer is to be attached, then

NONE

should be entered to

avoid the PC attempting to print to a non-existent printer and
“freezing” in the process.

Enter a filename and press

Printer Type

selects the type of printer used to print the data. This

field is only valid when

LPT1

LPT2

is entered for the

Printer

Filename

option.

Access Manager supplies drivers for five printers, but only one of the
predefined printer types can be entered in this field at a time.

The only difference in the five printer types supported is in the characters
used to program the printers for condensed (compressed) mode and to
