Description

Forces print job to begin and finish immediately.
Note: Dump works only with lprint when sending a print job to the printer from the mainwin. Although JB's help file shows examples of using dump when printing graphics to the printer, in fact, that is an error in the help file. Using dump in this manner will just be ignored by JB when running the program.
See LPRINT.

Syntax

  1. dump

Hints

You can control the contents of separate pages by issuing a DUMP command for each page.

Example

' send content to printer
    lprint "Hello world!"
