Asprn lets you easily change print styles
and control other printer functions from

work with any printer. res:1k (Robert L.

CHKOUT.ZIP Yes 8317 10/30/1989
Check-It-Out 2.30 checks document files for
the presence of upper ASCII characters (such
as line-drawing characters) before you waste
time printing them on a printer that will not
print such characters. Check-It-Out is very
fast, and if you find upper ASCII characters,
you can use a utility such as Over127 to
convert those characters to alternatives
while printing. (Ronald E. Hess) (Reg.Fee: $5)
COUNTPG.ZIP Yes 18212 8/14/1991
CountPgs 3.51a scans a file that you want to
print and tells you how many pages it will
take to print and the length of the longest
line in the file (or on each page) with an
option to specify tab width. You are warned
if a file ends with or without a formfeed,
has too many lines between formfeeds, or
begins with a formfeed, so that you can make
changes before printing the file. (Richard N.
Wisan) (Reg.Fee: $0)

(Reg.Fee: $?)
DMP.ZIP Yes 54088 1/28/1991
DMP 2.05 is a true print spooler to which you
can direct printer output so that you can do
other work while the printing is being done.
The difference between the usual print buffer
and a spooler is that a buffer program
requires you to allocate as much RAM for
buffering printer output as you expect to
print whereas a spooler uses disk files
rather than RAM to store the printer output
and, in this case, only takes 12k of RAM for
the program itself. DMP will also direct
printer output to a disk file as well as to
extended or expanded memory. DMP will emulate
several printers, as well. (Terry McGuire)
(ASP) (Reg.Fee: $29)

(Reg.Fee: $?)
INT17.ZIP Yes 4970 6/25/1990
INT17 disables printer output. Programs will
still think they are printing, even though
they are not. This is useful if you don't
want printer output for any reason - not even
redirected to the screen or disk (as other
utilities in PsL will allow). Printer output
can be re-enabled from the DOS command line.

controlling print at any time; a print
spooler especially designed to handle the
graphics output used by LQ to create the
fonts; a graphics editor for creating
high-resolution letterheads; a
poster-printing program; support for
proportional spacing and micro-justification
with PC-Write. Numerous character sets
(fonts) come on the disk. Configuration files
are on the disk for five different printers,

up your own configuration file. (Mark Harris)
(ASP) (Reg.Fee: $?)
LRNFRM.ZIP Yes 45038 8/11/1991
Learn-A-Form 2.2 makes it easy to print data
into preprinted forms. You insert the form in
your dot matrix printer and move the print
head around with the cursor keys to "teach"
the program the location of fields for data
to be printed in. Alternatively, you can give
the location of fields with X and Y (ie:
horizontal and vertical) coordinates by
placing a template over the form. After
teaching the program the layout of the form,
Leran-A-Form will print data from a file you
have created onto the preprinted form.

PrnSet and Friends 2.45 is a printer control
program designed to work with any printer by
reading the control codes out of a data file.

(usually graphics) characters, misplaced
^Z's, and oversize pages. Pagina breaks an
unpaged file into pages, with or without
headers, footers, and margins. You get a wide

WAIT_PA.ZIP Yes 2840 6/22/1989
Wait (PA) is a 1k TSR which hides in the
background until you are printing a document
that has a formfeed in it. Then WAIT will pop
up and pause the printing while you change
paper. The advantage of WAIT over PAGEBRK is
that WAIT, being resident in memory, should
work from within other programs. The
disadvantage is that if a file printer moves
to the top of the next page by a series of
blank lines rather than an ASCII-12 formfeed
character or if the file is a continuous
series of lines of text, then WAIT will not
work. (Pat Anderson) (Reg.Fee: $0)
