PRINTINIT()
Initializes one of the printers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
PRINTINIT([<nPrinter>, [<lMode>]]) --> nStatus
Arguments
<nPrinter> Designates the number the printer to initialize. Values
can be from 1 to 3 and correspond to the devices LPT1 to LPT3. The
default value is LPT1(1).
<lMode> When designated as .T., CA-Clipper is set internally to the
top of form. The default for CA-Clipper is not at the top of form
(.F.).
Returns
The returned value corresponds to the status of the <nPrinter> selected
printer. The individual bits are defined as follows:

the top of form. When <lMode> is designated as .T., the CA-Clipper
internal setting is top of form. This corresponds to a call of SETPRC
(0, 0).
