	~~(formerly "pass-through" printing)~~		{{:Direct Printing}}

	~~Some of the new printers were not previously supported in direct mode because they only worked via their Windows drivers. This has been alleviated.~~

	~~Print direct to network, indicated by NAME=PRN~~:~~/ no longer yields 6210 when the Windows print driver does not support pass through printing.~~

	~~A new printer initialization keyword is supported for direct printing:~~

	~~PRINTER xxx INIT HP "..."~~

	This adds certain required keywords to the printer initialization sequence. Some laser printers require these settings for Direct printing. They were previously provided automatically by pass-through printing (the predecessor to Direct ~~printing).~~

	~~As of our Business Rules! release [[4.2]] you can create [[PDFs]].~~

	~~To create a PDF file specify in the print file OPEN statement: Name= PDF:/ [,PrintFile= ...] If printfile is not specified, BR creates a PDF file in the spool directory.~~

	~~To create a PDF file and send it to the user’s Windows program associated with PDF files (such as Adobe Acrobat)~~: ~~Name= PDF:/READER [,PrintFile= ...] This is the same as creating~~ a PDF ~~file and then double clicking it.~~

	~~To create a PDF file and send it to a specified program or batch file: Name= PDF:/program-name [,PrintFile= ...]~~
