Printing to a File

Use the Print to File option in the Print dialog to save a print job to a file in the printer's language rather than directly to a printer. Printing to a file can be useful in the following situations:

To save the print output data so that you can print your items at a later time
To print your items by using another computer
To view or edit the print output data for various purposes

When the Print to File option is selected, BarTender displays the Print to File dialog at print time, which you can use to specify a path and file name for your print data.

For more information about how to use DOS commands to print the file later, refer to DOS COPY and PRINT Commands.
