Black Page

Description

Programs to print a BLACK page to an HP LaserJet. I plan to move this to https://github.com/vossenjp/ at some point…

C Source

#include <stdio.h>
/* Program to print a BLACK page to an HP LaserJet */
main()
{  /* begin of main */

        printf("\n\n\nBlack    PC Computing October 1991");
        printf("\n\nNow printing black page...\n");

        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"&l0E");
        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"&l0L");
        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"*p0x0Y");
        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"*c2400a3300B");
        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"*c0P");
        fprintf(stdprn,"%c%s",'\33',"E");

}  /* end of main */
