P R I N T P L U S V5.70
For best performance and ease of use make sure to set up the PLUSDATA=
variable in your Autoexec.bat file. Check P57DOC for instructions.
This will now work even if you run PrintPlus from another drive.
As long as you boot from the drive with the AUTOEXEC.BAT file that
contains the set PLUSDATA=
If Your printer doesn't print the way it should with PrintPlus, check
your printer manual for the correct printer codes. Enter them in the printer
setup windows under the Setup Menu.
You can add more than one printer code in one setup if you want
If you run into any problems or have questions/comments please contact me.
The various ways are in the P57DOC.
The complete instructions are in the P57DOC files.
PACKING.LST list all of the files in this package. If any are missing please

CTRL-R will refresh the screen display. When you change a floppy you can
use this to show the new files.
If your printer doesn't support Ibm box Characters you can toggle to user
define characters with [Alt-B].
You can then either print p57doc out like this or redirect it to a file in
the Redirect Menu.
In the Setup Window you have the option of redefining the characters by
pressing E for edit.
NEW
-------------------
Version 5.7 of PrintPlus has a few more features and some changes.
You can now display the file names on screen sorted by alpha, extension or none.
There is a rename function, alt-R. This will rename the file under the
cursor to the name you enter. If you have Dos v3 and up this will also
rename directories.
I added another Pmode. Pmode 0.
This will print the file straight through without removing or adding formfeeds.
No reformatting is done. This will be useful for files with embedded formfeeds
like Doc files.
This will also make it easier to print from page n to n.
In the docs there is a trouble shooting section. This is in a Question/
Answer format of some common questions.
In most cases it is best to leave skip on and filter on. These are available
just in case you need a little more control in some situations.
Most Users will probably not have a need to toggle these off.
The file KEY included is a one page "Quick Reference" GUIDE for some
common key commands.
Print this out from DOS or use PrintPlus in Pmode 0 with Header off.
If your printer won't print the IBM box graphics toggle to User define
ones with Alt-B before printing.
This will just fit on one page.
The Pmodes keys have been change from: F1,F2 & F3
to: 0, 1, 2,& 3.
