Print (command)
In computing, PRINT is a command in the command line interpreters (shells) of DOS, OS/2 and Microsoft Windows. It is used to add a text file to the print queue. Because of the text file limitation it is not equivalent to the lpr command in the Berkeley printing system or the lp command in the System V printing system (both available in the CUPS printing system). The command was introduced in MS-DOS version 2. Another option to print files is to use the COPY command to copy files to one of the printer ports LPT1: to LPT3:.

Famous quotes containing the word print:
“The Anglo-American can indeed cut down, and grub up all this waving forest, and make a stump speech, and vote for Buchanan on its ruins, but he cannot converse with the spirit of the tree he fells, he cannot read the poetry and mythology which retire as he advances. He ignorantly erases mythological tablets in order to print his handbills and town-meeting warrants on them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
