DEFINE/FORM DEFAULT/NOTRUNCATE/NOWRAP

If you are defining a new form, be sure to specify STOCK=DEFAULT 
(unless you are using a special stock) and initialize the queue with the 
DEFAULT=FORM option. For example, to create a form called PCL 
for the queue BRN on LAT port LTA33:, you would type:

DEFINE/FORM PCL/NOTRUNC/NOWRAP/STOCK=DEFAULT
INIT/QUEUE/START/ON=LTA33:/PROC=LATSYM/-
DEFAULT=FORM=PCL BRN

You are now ready to print. Use the PRINT command with the 
name of the queue and the file you wish to print as shown in the 
following example:

PRINT/QUEUE=BRN MYFILE.TXT 

If the file does not print, recheck the hardware and software configuration,  
and then try printing again. If the file still does not print, refer to the 
Troubleshooting portion of this userguide for further assistance.

Eliminating Blank Pages

When printing through VMS, a blank page is often printed after each 
job. To eliminate this blank page, first create a text file with the 
following contents:

<ESC>]VMS;2<ESC>\

where <ESC> is the escape character (ASCII 27) and "VMS" is in 
uppercase. Then insert this file into your default library (normally 
SYSDEVCTL.TLB), and specify it as a setup module in your form 
(stop and reset all queues that use the library before doing this 
procedure). For example:

$LIB/INS SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSLIB]SYSDEVCTL.TLB NOBL
$DEF/FORM PCL/SETUP=NOBL

The above example inserts the file NOBL.TXT into the default library 
and then redefines the form PCL (previously defined in step 4) to 
eliminate blank pages.

This procedure is not required for DECprint Supervisor 
(DCPS).
