DOS Commands for Printing Text Files
¨ PRINT filename
¨ TYPE filename > devicename
¨ COPY filename devicename
If you've used a word processor or other software package to prepare your document, it's usually easiest
to use that packages print commands to print it. This is particularly true if the software lets you control a
documents appearance, page length, margins, printing features, and so on.
However, if your software doesnt control these kinds of features, it's just as easy to print using DOS
commands. Some packages even have a print to disk feature, so you can save the file on a disk in a
format that DOS can later read and send to the printer.
