NAME
pr_nl -- print a carriage return/line feed to printer
pr_puts -- print a string to the printer
pr_putline -- print a string, and a cr/lf to the printer
pr_eject -- send a formfeed to the printer
pr_carret -- send a carriage return to the printer
pr_set -- set the number of the current printer
pr_putc -- send a character to the printer
SYNOPSIS
all routines except pr_putc are type void
unless noted, no parameters are needed:
pr_putline(str); char *str;
pr_puts(str); char *str;
pr_set(num); int num 0, 1, or 2
r = pr_putc(ch); char ch; int r; (returned status)
DESCRIPTION
This series of routines use the low level functions
blpr() and blprstat() to access the LPT? ROM-BIOS drivers
directly. pr_putc() returns the same status that is returned
by blprstat(). Be sure to use pr_set() to set which LPT is
to be accessed. Note that the library defaults to LPT1:,
and pr_set() may be ignored if that printer is to be used.
EXAMPLE
pr_set(LP1); /* LP1, LP2, LP3 defined in smdefs.h */
pr_putline("Hello World");
pr_eject();
This function is found in SMTCx.LIB for the Turbo-C Compiler
