Problem with CATIA V5 R12 Batch Printing 1

[jackiew]

When executing a batch CATIA V5 plot on Windows a cnext window displays which causes the batch plot to fail because there is no user logged on to the PC running the batch plots. The command is:

CNEXT.exe -batch -e CATPrintBatch printbatch.xml

Is there any way to suppress this window from appearing? This causes problems for batch printing since there will be no interactive user on the machine processing batch plots.
