The PRINT_METHOD environment variable enables you to choose the print method when using the deprecated LPQUE statement.
Value
escape
Discussion
The PRINT_METHOD environment variable is checked If system option #22 is not set.
When PRINT_METHOD=escape is set, data from files printed with the LPQUE statement goes directly to the printer, bypassing the Windows Print Manager so escape codes are not affected. The LPQUE statement uses printer driver default values, and any changes made to the driver are ignored.
If PRINT_METHOD is not set, the Windows Print Manager is used.
PRINT_METHOD cannot be used with remote desktop printers.
Setting location
The environment or the [synergy], [dbr], or [myprog] section of synergy.ini (where myprog is any .dbr file). To be used by xfServer, PRINT_METHOD must be set in the Windows registry. Refer to Defining environment variables for xfServer services for information on setting environment variables in the Windows registry.
Used by
