In the old DOS days, I had a nice little batch file, called COND15.BAT which changed the printer setting from "Normal" to "Condensed 15", like this:
ECHO Setting "Compressed Printing ON"...
ECHO >PRN
ECHO"Printing will now be in Condensed Mode"....
Now this batch file still works for the Epson Action Laser 1500 and Dot-Matrix Epson LQ-1000, but not with my HP Deskjet 890C. For this kind of printing, small labels, etc.. I use DOS under WIN98. To stop it, I just had to put the printer on "OFF' and start it again.
Does somebody know the command that I could use to force the HP Deskjet 890C to switch from "Normal printing" to "Condensed 15" under DOS? Thank you for your answers.
