@pt = printer type, but that is kind of easy.
How about this one:
What does the following command do:
Reset printer

Ken,
I like the abbreviations and it makes it easier to remember, but for
some reason some of these I forget are even there.
No one got it yet. Richard was right it has something to do with Print
- hence the @P part.
But remember you also have @PM @PX @PY @PZ that do not relate to printing.
