Determines whether dBASE Plus ejects a sheet of paper before and after a PRINTJOB.
Syntax
_peject = <expC>
<expC>
The character expression "before", "after", "both", or "none".
Default
The default for _peject is "before", which tells the printer to eject a sheet of paper before starting the print job.
Description
Use _peject to specify if and when the printer should eject a sheet of paper. Assign a new value to _peject (and to any other system memory variable) before issuing PRINTJOB in a program to make the new value affect the print job.
The following table describes _peject options.
<expC> |
Result |
"before" |
Eject sheet before printing the first page |
"after" |
Eject sheet after printing the last page |
"both" |
Eject sheet before and after the print job |
"none" |
Don't eject sheet before or after the print job |
Note
The _peject system memory variable is distinct from the EJECT command, which tells the printer to advance the paper to the top of the next page.
