Create an ASCII text file that contains only the EOD command. For
example, create a DOS batch file listing each print filename followed
by the EOD command filename for each file being printed. Then “run”
the batch file to print your list of files.
Sample DOS batch file:
Command Explanation
Print mktg.doc Job filename
Print end.txt EOD command filename
Print acct.doc Job filename
Print end.txt EOD command filename
If your printer is connected to a network through a PC and the PC is
acting as a print server managing the printing of shared network files,
then your system administrator must create a job separator and asso-
ciate it with a print job queue. Different network environments have
different procedures for creating the job separator, such as initializa-
tion sequences, custom banner pages, print job headers, or print job
trailers. The print server does not necessarily send multiple print jobs
to the printer in the order that you queued them to the printer. The
network job separator is accessed with each print job, so this ensures
that network job separation is enforced. See
QMS Crown Network
Notes
for more information on how to create a network job separator
for several commonly used networks.
In addition to Centronics parallel communication, your printer’s paral-
lel interface provides IEEE1284 bidirectional parallel communication,
which supports five modes of operation. The printer automatically rec-
ognizes and uses the mode dictated by the host.
