In MS-DOS

If you cannot print a text file using the MS-DOS PRINT command, check the AUTOEXEC. BAT file to see whether it contains any of the following statements: MODELPT1 :=COM1:

or

MODELPT1 :=COM2:

These indicate that the computer is set up to print to a printer via a serial cable, not a parallel cable. So, if you are using a parallel cable, delete the line from AUTOEXEC.BAT. Resave AUTOEXEC.BAT, and restart your computer. Try printing again.

Conversely, if you are using the SPC-8K serial-to-paral- lel converter, make sure that a statement is included in AUTOEXEC.BAT. See “Setting up an MS-DOS com- puter” on page 72.If you still cannot print, refer to the MS-DOS User’s Guide, or consult your software dealer.

If you can print from MS-DOS but cannot print from your application, check to see which printer driver is selected in the application. Check the application’s manual for details of printer selection.

If you still cannot print, consult your software dealer.
