LP Command
________________
Purpose: To print an ASCII file on a standard printer device
at either 66 or 88 lines per page. A title is printed
at the top of each page which contains the file name,
creation date, and page number.
Syntax: LP [d][path]filename[.ext] [/6][/8]
[/L1][/L2]
[/10][/12][/17]
Remarks: The default is 88 lines per page. For 66 lines per
page, specify the /6 option.
The default printer is LPT1. For LPT2, specify /L2.
The default is 12 CPI. For 10, specify /10; for 17,
specify /17.
If the input filename is omitted, you are asked for it.
Each page is numbered and contains a title consisting
of the file name and creation date.
Control characters sent to the OKI printer include
TAB settings. The control codes can be changed for
use with other printers.
If a print spooler is used, DO NOT use LP while using
the DOS PRINT command.
Notes:
Written by Vernon Buerg for the IBM PC using DOS 2.0
or later. For public domain use. Not for sale or hire.
Version 1.1, April 27, 1984.
Version 1.2, Sept 12, 1984.
Version 1.4, Aug 14, 1985.
Because some print spoolers do not handle Int 17h
this version uses function 21 to write to the printer.
It is slower than 1.2.
