DEV Command

Do not configure a printer with DEV EXCLUSIVE OFF! if it is associated with
locations that are configured with font jobs to affect the printing of a subsequent
print job. The EXCLUSIVE OFF! attribute causes the device to be closed and
opened between printing the font job and printing the subsequent print job, thereby
terminating the effects of the font job. Configure a device in this situation with
either EXCLUSIVE ON or EXCLUSIVE OFF.
