1) PRINT runs only with text files (in the first thread message I wrote I
need to print doc, pdf, xls, ...!)
2) I know I can drag and drop a file on a printer device but I need a batch
doing this!

> You can use the print command as shown below or for an easier way you can
use windows explorer to drag the files to a printer object. Just highlight
the files you want printed and drag it to your printer icon.

> /d:Printer
> Specifies the printer on which you want to print the job. You can specify
a local printer by specifying the port on your computer to which the printer
is connected. Valid values for parallel ports are LPT1, LPT2, and LPT3.
Valid values for serial ports are COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4. You can also
specify a network printer by its queue name (\\ServerName\ShareName). If you
do not specify a printer, the print job is sent to LPT1.
> Drive:
> Specifies the logical or physical drive on which the file you want to
print is located. This parameter is not required if the file you want to
print is located on the current drive.
> Path
> Specifies where, on the drive, the file you want to print is located. This
parameter is not required if the file you want to print is located in the
current directory.
> FileName [...]
> Required. Specifies, by name, the file you want to print. You can include
multiple files in one command.
> /?
> Displays help at the command prompt.
> Remarks
> A file can print in the background if you send it to a printer connected
to a serial or parallel port on the local computer.
> Many programs have their own print commands. You should use the print
command for a program to print files that you create with that program.
> You can perform many configuration tasks from the command line by using
the mode command. For more information about configuring a printer connected
to a parallel port, configuring a printer connected to a serial port,
displaying the status of a printer, or preparing a printer for code page
switching, see mode in Related Topics.
> Examples
> To send the file Report.txt in the current directory to a printer
connected to LPT2 on the local computer, type:
> print /d:LPT2 report.txt
> To send the file Report.txt in the c:\Accounting directory to the Printer1
print queue on the \\CopyRoom server, type:
> print /d:\\copyroom\printer1 c:\accounting\report.txt
