Getting Ascii Data With Print? All Query - HP 16500C Programmer's Manual

Getting ASCII Data with PRINt? ALL Query

This program example shows you how to get ASCII data from a listing
display, like the disk catalog or state listing, using the PRINt? ALL query.
There are two things you must keep in mind:
•
You must select the mainframe, which is always SELECT 0 for the
HP 16500C mainframe.
•
You must select the proper menu. The only menus that allow you to use
the PRINt? ALL query are the disk menu and listing menus.
