I have such commands in ORDER to test the printer under DOS.
I want to write a bat file ,so that i need not to enter so many commands.
I simply divided them into 3 groups.
1&2 group is the pre-setting.3rd group is to activate printer.

I want to MAKE a bat file that:
1.setup (the command line appeare that let user see, then the SENTENCE 9600bps set completed)
2.beep buzzer
3.print

I have a autpexe.bat file
i put the command call this.bat

How to write this,may i have a starting/sample code?


#1.) Setup baud rate to 9600bps and etc
-----------------------------------------
-o 3fb 83 >hit enter
-o 3f8 0c >enter
-o 3fb 03 >enter


#2.) Send command1 to printer:
-----------------------------
-o 3f8 1e >enter ( beep the buzzer)


#3.) Send command2 to printer:
-----------------------------
-o 3f8 1b >enter
-o 3f8 3F >enter
-o 3f8 0a >enter
-o 3f8 00 >enter (RESET printer hardware and then self print)Sry,forgot to state.I have a program call debug to execute.

Can i write these inside my printer.bat? Just a try

debug /o 3fb 83
/o 3f8 0c
/o 3fb 03

echo.
echo.
echo.
echo. 9600bps baud rate set completed
echo.
echo.
pause
try this for the setup section

:: create the debug file
> setup.dbg echo o 3fb 83
>> setup.dbg echo o 3f8 0c
>> setup.dbg echo o 3fb 03
>> setup.dbg echo q
:: execute it
debug < setup.dbg

echo.
echo.
echo.
echo. 9600bps baud rate set completed
echo.
echo.
pause


and do the same thing for the other sections
