Testing the Þle server-to-printer connection

1.

To test the Þle-server-to-printer connection, Þrst use the
CAPTURE

command to redirect output sent to a port to a network

queue. For example:

CAPTURE NB NFF NT Q=PHASER L=1

where:

NB

speciÞes NO BANNER

NFF

speciÞes NO FORM FEED

NT

speciÞes NO TABS

L=1

speciÞes port LPT1

Q=PHASER

speciÞes PHASER as the queue name

2.

Use any text editor to create a two-line ASCII Þle with the
following contents:

%!

showpage

3.

Use the COPY command to send the Þle to the printer. For
example, if the Þle is called SHOWPAGE, and the printer is
assigned to LPT1, type:

COPY SHOWPAGE LPT1:

If the Þle server-to-printer connection is good, the printer ejects a
blank page.
