OMBUDSMAN STATEMENT
"This program is produced by a member of the Association
of Shareware Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure
that the shareware principle works for you. If you are
unable to resolve a shareware-related problem with an ASP
member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able
to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute
or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
technical support for members' products. Please write to
the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI
49442-9427 USA, FAX 616-788-2765 or send a Compuserve
message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536"
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of Print Commander! must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"Print Commander! is supplied as is. The author disclaims all
warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation,
the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose.
The author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the use of Print Commander!"
Print Commander! is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge
to you for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends,
but please do not give it away altered or as part of another system.
The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal computer
users with quality software without high prices, and yet to provide
incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products. If you
find this program useful and find that you are using Print Commander! and
continue to use Print Commander! after a reasonable trial period, you must
make a registration payment (see "PCOM_INV.TXT") to Sorcerer Software. The
registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer at any
one time.

*****************************************************************************
You must treat this software just like a book. As an example this software
may be used by any number of people and may be freely moved from one
computer location to another, as long as there is no possibility of it
being used at one location while it's being used at another, just as a
book cannot be read by two different persons at the same time.
Commercial users of Print Commander! must register and pay for their
copies of Print Commander! within 30 days of first use.
Anyone distributing Print Commander! for any kind of remuneration must
first contact Sorcerer Software at the address below for authorization.
This authorization will be automatically granted to distributors
recognized by the ASP (Association of Shareware Professionals) as adhering
to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such distributors
may begin offering Print Commander! immediately. However Sorcerer Software
must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with
the latest version of Print Commander!
You are encouraged to pass a copy of Print Commander! along to your
friends and colleagues for evaluation. Please encourage them to register
their copy if they find that they like and use it. All registered users
will receive a copy of the latest version of Print Commander!

(A NOTE TO USERS OF BUBBLE JET/INK JET PRINTERS
These printers often are set to different default parameters than dot matrix
printers. They frequently, for example, start up in letter quality rather
than draft mode. We have available to you a specific Print Commander!
configuration to resolve this problem--just let us know your needs when you
order.)
REGISTRATION OPTIONS
When you register with Sorcerer Software we will send you a version of the
Print Commander! printer utility that:
1. Contains no nag screen or other registration information;
2. Is smaller, thus occupying less conventional memory when resident
and less space on your hard disk;
3. Is optimized for your computer's microprocessor, making it both
smaller and faster.
You may choose from three Print Commander! registration options:
I. PRINT COMMANDER!
This package of printer utilities includes:
Print Commander! Registered version
Print Commander!/W Microsoft Windows compatible version.
This registration entitles the user to one registered set of Print
Commander! programs. Registration notification will replace the request for
registration and the nag screen will be absent. The program will be
optimized for speed and size based upon the user's microprocessor
architecture. The various Print Commander! features will NOT be optimized
and configured for the user's printer make and model, that is, the
Print Commander! screen will look the same as in the current unregistered
version. The opportunity to upgrade to a version made specifically for
your printer is available by contacting Sorcerer Software directly.

*****************************************************************************
II. PRINT COMMANDER! COLLECTION
This collection of printer utilities includes:
Print Commander! Customized for your printer and processor.
Print Commander!/W Microsoft Windows compatible version.
EZread A DOS text reading utility that displays text
on screen and allows you to scroll through it
one page at a time. It may be used in place
of the TYPE command provided with DOS.
Spool Commander! Printer spooler that can be configured to
spool 1 to 64 KB and send it to LPT 1, 2,
or 3. Configured by the user, it can be
unloaded from memory and can be loaded high.
These utilities are customized for your Intel or Intel compatible
microprocessor's architecture. Additional details can be found in the
invoice file, PCOM_INV.TXT.
III. Personalized Print Commander!
We will customize a version of Print Commander! for your printer, using
features specific to your printer, such as your printer's own fonts. Contact
Sorcerer Software for details and additional fee schedule. Examples are
displayed below under "Sample Configurations".
DESCRIPTION OF ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS
The Windows compatible version of PRINT COMMANDER! can be run in DOS or
Windows and provides all the capabilities of the TSR program. It is
compatible with both Standard and 386 Enhanced Mode Windows 3.x. Although
this is written as a DOS (rather than Windows) program, it runs particularly
well in 386 Enhanced Mode in a DOS window, and instructions for proper use
are included.

*****************************************************************************
EZREAD is a text reading utility that displays ASCII text files on the
screen. It can be used in place of the TYPE command that is part of DOS.
This is another very small, fast program that allows you to scroll through
your text files one page at a time, unlike TYPE.
SPOOL COMMANDER!, a printer spooler, intercepts output going to the printer
and holds it until the printer is ready for it. This means that control of
the printer can be returned to you almost immediately so that you can return
to work. NO MORE WAITING ON THE PRINTER! Anyone who uses a dot matrix or
ink jet printer needs to use a spooler. Spool Commander! occupies
very little memory on your hard disk, on appropriately configured machines
can be loaded high, and like Print Commander! can be UNLOADED from memory.
It can spool up to 64K of output. Spool Commander! can be used with any type
of file, including text files, word processor files, and even graphic files.
