The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1

Windows NT enables you to print a separator page between print jobs. Windows NT provides several separator page files located in the SYSTEM32 subdirectory that have the extension SEP.

A chart on page 192 of the Windows NT System Guide and the text following that chart refer to a DEFAULT.SEP. This file does not exist. If you specify it as instructed on the bottom of page 192, an error message will appear indicating that the separator file could not be found.

To make use of a seperator page file, either use one of the existing files or create a new one.

For additional information on how to create a custom Separator page, query on the following words in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
