PRNTSCRN documentation
PRNTSCRN is a TSR that enhances the < Print Scrn > key.
PRNTSCRN takes 736 bytes of memory when resident.
Usage :
To install, execute PRNTSCRN.EXE at the command line or better yet, include
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT. Load before GRAPHICS.COM.
To activate, press the < Print Scrn > key. This will dump an image of the
text screen to the printer connected to LPT1.
What PRNTSCRN does:
o prints the IBM characters with ASCII codes below 32
o interpets and prints characters with the bold attribute set
o interpets and prints underlined characters ( on monochrome systems )
o adds a form feed to printer output
What PRNTSCRN doesn't:
o EGA/VGA 43/50 line modes.
printer control codes used by prntscrn:
Enable printing of all character codes on next character : <ESC> "^"
Double-strike printing : <ESC> "G"
Cancel double-strike printing : <ESC> "H"
Start underlining : <ESC> "-" 1
Stop underlining : <ESC> "-" 0
FormFeed 12
You can test to see if your printer supports these commands by dumping
the file PRNTEST.TXT to the printer ( COPY PRNTEST.TXT PRN ).
