Hi,
        What is the procedure for printing a document to a file or to disk. 
    The print set up has an option for this, but then the "printed" file cannot be read. 
    
    
    If you print a document to a file, the document can't be "readed". The option to print to a file is used for another purpose. Lets said that you have at home one printer, and you want to print a document in another place, with a different printer. Then, if you have at home configured the printer where you want to print, you can print to a file, copy the file to a flopy disk, and print the document in the second printer.
    An example: At home you have a Citizen CSX-190, and at work you have a Deskjet 690. Choose the printer Deskjet 190 in the print option, print to a file, name it as you want (something.prn), copy to a disk, and take it with you at work. Then, insert the disk, and at the DOS prompt type:
    copy /b something.prn prn
    That's all! The document will be printed. (It's necesary the option /b)
    I hope that this help.
