have updated DJPrint to version 1.05 and it may be downloaded from my web
page at:

DJPrint version 1.05
DJPrint was intended as a method to list source code on my HP DeskJet
632C. Other OS/2 and eCS users have found it useful for various
printing tasks.
DJPrint should work with any printer that supports the HP PCL 3
commands. The printers that are known to work with DJPrint are listed
below.
HP Deskjet 932C
Xerox Phaser 8550
HP LaserJet II
HP DeskJet 340
Brother HD 5150D
IBM 4019 laser printer
HP Laserjet 4050N
HP DeskJet 632C
HP Deskjet 980 Cxi
HP Deskjet 990 Cxi
HP 450
Lexmark T620
The file "printers" is a list of printers that may work with DJPrint,
but have not been tested.
The default printing mode of DJPrint is to assume the paper is US
letter size (8.5 x 11), 6 lpi , and line numbering is turned on. The
printer is also put into compressed (16.5 cpi) print.
DJPrint has options that should allow users outside the U.S.A. to also
find it useful. The file "charset.djp" contains a list of the
character sets that are supported by DJPrint. The default character
set is the PC-8 set which is the one used by most OS/2 users in the
U.S.A. To select a different character set, edit the file
"charset.djp" and move the forward slash "/" from the PC-8 line to the
desired character set. The program looks first in the current
directory for the file and then in the directory where the executable
was located. You should locate the file "charset.djp" in the same
directory as the executable since you should not need to change the
character set very often. Other than moving the "/" character, do not
alter the text in the file. DJPrint looks for an exact match for the
text in the file.
In addition to being able to select the printer's character set, there
is an option to set the paper size to A4.
Since the program was intended for source code printing, no attempt
was made for intelligent wrapping. The wrap occurs when the line
length limit is reached. Unless the line numbering is turned off, the
same line number is used for wrapped lines. If line number 10 needs
to be wrapped to fit on the page, all of the wrapped portions of line
10 will be numbered 10. This is done so that the line numbers refelct
the actual source line number. A plus sign is inserted before each
wrapped line to make certain the user knows the line has been wrapped.
Many functions are under the users control. The printer may be put
into portrait or landscape mode, and the supported paper sizes are A4,
letter (US standard size and the default), and legal (8.5 x 14
inches). The user also has the option of 6 or 8 lines per inch, with 6
lines per inch the default. The user may set the starting source line
number, the ending source line number, and start the page numbering at
number other than one. Setting the starting page number does not
change where the program starts printing the source lines, it is only
a cosmetic change. This will allow the user to reprint a specific
page in a listing.
Since DJPrint has many option switches, the user may create a file
called "options.djp" and DJPrint will read the option switches from
the file before reading the command line switches. The command line
options will override any conflicting options in the options file. The
options in the file must start at column 1 and must start with a
forward slash. Lines that start with any other characters are ignored.
DJPrint will look first in the current directory for the "options.djp"
file and if not found, then in the directory where DJPrint.exe is
located.
DJPrint checks for a formfeed character at the start of a line. If one
is found a new page with a header is started. Formfeeds that are not
at the start of a line are not detected and the new page will not have
a header and the lines per page counter will not be reset.
DJPrint displays the source characters per line and the source lines
per page. This information is displayed before the name of the file
being printed is displayed.
DJPrint will do manual duplex printing. The output is first sent to
the file testprn and then that file is split into oddprn and evenprn.
The file oddprn is sent to the printer, the user is prompted to reload
the paper and then the file evenprn is printed. If the /F option is
used, the final output goes to the file testprn2.
DJPrint also has an option to send the command to the printer for
internal duplex printing - if the printer supports duplex printing.
Except for the page break string and the comment string, the options
are not case sensitive.
Entering DJPrint at the command line with no arguments will cause the
program to display a list of the supported options. The order that
the options are entered is not significant. The options may be
entered before or after the files to be printed. DJPrint will do wild
card expansion, so you may enter "*.c" (without the quotes) to print
all of the C files in a directory.
A typical useage command would look like:
DJPrint (options) file1 ... file9
where file1 ... file9 may contain wild cards
The file names and options may be mixed in the command line, but the
options apply to all the files being printed.
Options:
The /R option sends a reset to the printer before printing. If you are
not the only one using the printer, sending a reset may a good idea.
A reset is sent to the printer when DJPrint terminates.
The /F option causes the output to be sent to the file TESTPRN. This
allows the user to see what would be printed before sending the job to
the printer. This is handy when you are exploring the various
options.
The /Hxx option starts the printing with source line xx, where xx is a
decimal number between 1 and 9999.
The /Txx option stops the printing with source line xx, where xx is a
decimal number between 1 and 9999.
The /Ixx option sets the initial page number to xx, where xx is a
decimal number between 1 and 9999. This is only a cosmetic setting,
it does not change where in the source file printing is started. This
option along with the /Hxx and /Txx options will let the user replace
specific pages from a printed set. For example, if page 10 was
damaged and started with with line 571 and ended with 628, the options
/I10 /H571 /T628 would print a replacement page 10.
The /N option stops the printing of line numbers. It does not stop the
header line from being printed.
The /CPIxx option selects the number of characters per inch, where xx
is 10, 12 , 16 , or 20 characters per inch.
The /CPIP option selects a proportional font which is about 14 cpi
with my printer. The font used may vary with the make and model of
the printer.
The /CPIPQ option selects a proportional font with letter quality
print and is about 14 cpi with my printer.
The /CPIPI option selects a proportional font with italic mode print
which is about 14 cpi with my printer.
The options /CPIPQ and /CPIPI turn off the headers, the line numbers
and set the lines per inch to 6 lpi.
The /COLOR option tells the printer to use the color cartridge for
printing. Used for when the black cartridge is gone or empty.
The text is still black.
The /S option puts the printer in 8 lines per inch mode. If /CPI20
is also selected, the printer is put in 12 lines per inch mode and
the font point size is set to 6 point. This reduces the height of
the font and allows the closer line spacing.
The /L option puts the printer in landscape mode.
The /D option adds an extra linefeed for double space printing. Useful
when the printed text will be marked for editing.
The /DU option is for manual duplex printing. DJPrint prints the odd
pages and then prompts the user to reload the printed pages to print
the even pages.
The /DUI option sets the printers duplex option. The printer must
support duplex printing for this option to work.
The /DARK option sets the print mode to bold for darked print.
The /PA option sets the paper size to A4 (210x297 mm)
The /PL option sets the paper size to legal (8.5x14 in)
The /Wx option sets the destination printer to LPT 1,2, or 3. The
default is the default printer that is set on the printer objects.
The /C option adds a name or comment to the header on page 1. For
example: /C"Don Hawkinson" or /c"windows IS a virus!". The quotes are
only needed if the comment contains spaces.
The /B option issues new page after a user specified string is found.
For example: /b"{page break}" or /b"/* new page */". The quotes are
only needed if the comment contains spaces.
The /F option sends the output to a file called testprn in the current
directory. This allows the user to see what would be sent to the
printer without using ink or paper.
The /W and /B options only require the quotes if the text includes a
space. The text after these two options are the only part of the
options that are case sensitive.
Please let me know if this program works with your printer and the
model number of your printer.
You can check the version number by executing the program with no
arguments.
