Logoff and login again to see the new border. REG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics" /v PaddedBorderWidth /d 0 /f

REG QUERY "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics" /v PaddedBorderWidth REG QUERY "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics" /v BorderWidth The border size (for all windows) can be set in the registry or with REG, the defaults are -15 for BorderWidth and -60 for off This allows you to configure a line printer connected to a parallel printer To setup the parameters for a serial port.Ĭonfigure a printer connected to a parallel printer port. To configure a parallel printer port (PRN, LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3): You must be a member of the Administrators group to redirect printing. To redirect output from a parallel port (PRN, LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3) to a serial Typematic rate is the rate at which a character is repeated when To additionally show the status of any redirected parallel printer: In PowerShell the height and buffer size can be set independently, but this requires a script. If the display window is made very large (many times the size of a typical display), the memory used by conhost.exe will increase, in extreme cases to over 1 GB. Mode can be used to set the display window to be larger than the monitor width and/or height, in this case the CMD window size will be restricted to the display size but a scroll bar will appear. Mode lines will set both the height/width of the console window and the screen buffer. (COM1, COM2, LPT1, CON) this output is language/locale specific.

Used without parameters, MODE displays the status of all devices installed on your system Undocumented) abbreviated version of the above: MODE COM m ĭisplay size/buffer - number of columns wide and number of lines deep: Configure a system device: COM / LPT port, or CMD console CON.
