Chris, You can print a directory list from a DOS prompt. You don't need to reboot.
After getting the DOS prompt, type C: to change to the C drive ( or drive of choice ). Then type CD \directory name ( ex: CD \SM9\MILL\FFDATA ). Then type DIR >PRN. You can use wildcards to only print selected files ( DIR *.PGM >PRN will only print files which end with ".PGM" ). The file will be directed to the default printer. If the printer is a laser printer, you will need to send the printer an end-of-page command to tell it to print. I have attached a short DOS program called FF.COM to do this. Place the FF.COM file in the same directory you wish to print from, or place it in the WINDOWS directory, or any other directory that is in your PATH ( type PATH from a DOS prompt to see which directories are in your PATH ). Type FF to send the end-of-page command to the printer. then type EXIT to return to Windows. Gene Bowen
