print a report, then log off. All of this : without the user, after
the initail double click on an icon. After the dialing : part of my
script I have:
: output \13

: Before the last two line is where I would like to turn the printer
on. From the : text I read that I should type alt-o, I tried to send
this in the code by using : %o, this did not work.
Printing the report is started by the host not by the user in most
cases. What is the application on the host? How is the report
being output?
Pressing Alt-o activates a Keyboard verb. To use a Keyboard verb in
a script simply place the verb in the script as a command.

: Also upgrading to the new version gave me errors when I used the
batch file and : ini to set up this PC as a host. I reinstalled the
old version from disk.
Would you care to tell us what errors were reported? Look in PATCH.ERR.
We do not recommend returning to out of date versions of the software
unless there is a really good reason to do so.
