Not precisely but as HP printers default to "READY" as their message, you can send @PJL RDYMSG DISPLAY ="READY" as the 
default.

Right you are again! That worked!!

Funny
you use that format because when Fyodor wrote his original reply to my
message back in February he used precisely this format and it doesn't
work just as you say. (When I post my final script, I intend to do so
as a reply to that thread, you will see his sample command there)

I'll keep plugging away and see if I can get the no argument thing to send a default message to the printer...I'm 
almost there!
