What Does the Remote Printer

Console Do?

The Remote Printer

Console (RPC) is a utility program

that can run in the DOS

environment

and comprises

the following two programs:

Remote Printer Console Main Program

This program allows you to change various printer

settings such as emulation,

quality, fonts, page setup etc., from your computer screen. Since most DOS applications

have a printer settings menu that overrides the settings

made by the RPC, you may

not have to use this utility program.

This utility program

is useful for application

software that does not control the printer's

settings

and features.

Printer Status Monitor Program

This utility program

can monitor your printer's

status

using bidirectional

parallel

communications.

If your MFC has no paper, this utility program

displays "Paper

Empty" error status

and instructions

for corrective action on your computer

screen.

This utility program

stays resident in your computer memory (Terminate-and-Stay

Resident

program) and runs in the background.
