The PPRINT Table
To output some model information to the CL files, you have to set up a PPRINT table for this model. This table contains all the items that can be output through PPRINT. Whether an item will be output or not is determined by the flag value. The default flag value for all items is No. Change it to Yes if you want the item to be output. You can add an optional comment to be output along with the item.
* 
Comments are limited to 69 characters or less.
Whenever you output CL data to file, the system will check the PPRINT table. If any flag is set to Yes and the appropriate information is available, the corresponding PPRINT command will be output to the CL file.
The following items are output once per CL file:
PART_NAME
