Printing a file
Printing a file
1 Load the application
If it's not loaded already, load the application
you used to create the file.
2 Open the file you want to print
Double-click on a file to open it.
If it's not open already, open the TestFiles1
directory (on your workdisc) that you created in
the previous chapter. Open the file EditTest.
3 Press the Print key on the keyboard
Some applications (like Edit) will print a file
straight away at this point (others will display a
Print dialogue box – click on OK or Print to print
one copy).
Your Edit file should print out fairly quickly – you
won't see a dialogue box.
If your file doesn't print out, and you don't see
a dialogue box, follow the next two steps.
Otherwise, you can quit the file EditTest.
1 Display the application menu
Click Menu inside the file's window.
Do this in the window for EditTest.
2 Choose the Print option
The Print option is not always in the top-level
menu of an application. You may have to search
through the submenus to find it.
Again, you might see a Print dialogue box, or
your file might print straight away, depending on
the application.
In this case, choose Misc/Print. Your file should
print out, but if things don't appear to be working,
try some of the hints at the end of this chapter
.
