Your print file on disk may contain binary information such as bitmap graphics
or font downloads.  When you use the normal copy command DOS assumes the file
is text and looks for a special end of file code which may occur in the binary
data.  Try doing the copy with the /b switch which tells DOS that the file is
binary and is shouldn't look for an end of file code.
