This is useful when the printer driver pops up with a print-status-monitor window, which a lot of modern printer drivers (mostly inkjets) do. Restore the focus to the calling window after DOSPrinter did the job. This switch gets disabled if any kind of "set vertical motion" esc-command is present in the file. It deletes the file permanently (does not move the file in the recycle bin).įorce nn lines per page ( nn is a number).įor example the /72 switch emulates the Fanfold page size (perforated German Std Fanfold), which is 12'' long on any other page size (letter, A4 etc). This switch can be combined with /R /TRAY and /U switches.ĭelete the file after printing it. Optionally specify the ID for the instance. If used together with /IDn switch, unloads only the instance(s) with the specified ID number Unload instance(s) of DOSPrinter from the memory. If any previous instance of DOSPrinter exists, an error message pops up and the second DOSPrinter instance does not start. Same as /R, but it allows only one instance of DOSPrinter per computer (also, all desktops and users under Windows). R is better when you don't want to have any UI or systray icon. It's up to your application to provide different filenames for input files. Your application could print on several different printers this way: start more instances of DOSPrinter /R, each one with a different input file (or different folder) and a different destination printer specified. Multiple instances of DOSPrinter are allowed with /R switch. After the file(s) has changed, DOSPrinter prints out this changed file(s). What "resident" means: DOSPrinter prints the specified file(s) and after that it waits in background for the specified file(s) to change. You can specify tray icon tooltip text in single quotes ( /TRAY'my text') that is handy for icon identification when you have multiple instances in systray. Everything stated for /R switch, also applies here. In that case you can specify everything in the Configurator dialog (right mouse click on the icon) later, at any time. The switches and the filename are not required in the command line when /TRAY switch is present. Start in UI mode by showing a system tray icon.
