Aptiva - The GRAPHICS Command

Applicable to: United States

The GRAPHICS command allows for printing the contents of a DOS screen that contains text and/or graphics. Once this command has been issued, the displayed contents can be printed by using the [Print Screen] key. Depending upon the type of printer you have, the contents of the screen can be printed in 19 shades of gray or up to eight colors.

The GRAPHICS command can be issued from the DOS command prompt or inserted into the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If it is inserted into the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, the GRAPHICS command will execute each time the computer is booted, (turned on or restarted by pressing [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Delete]).

The syntax of the GRAPHICS command is:

GRAPHICS [/R]

/R = specifies not to reverse black and white. If you specify /R, this will force black on the monitor to print black and white on the monitor to print white. If you DO NOT specify /R (the default), then the white on the screen will print black.
