Another way of clearing the PS printer, or sending a CLEAR to the printer
is to do the following from the DOS prompt or from a batch file:

	ECHO ^D >PRN

Where "^D" is a CONTROL-D, if the batch file is created from the DOS
command line, you can just press a D while holding the CONTROL key down,
or press the 4 key while holding the ALT key down.

C:> copy con d2prn.bat
echo ^D >PRN
^Z

OK?

:)
