Computing total energy with -RESTART.wfn and no SCF iterations

Hi All,
I would like to calculate the total energy and hartree_potential for a
system using HF, where I give a -RESTART.wfn file. The thing is, I want it
to do the calculation using the wavefunctions from the -RESTART.wfn file
without doing any SCF optimization steps (I want to calculate the total
energy of a molecule which is *instantaneously* charged, i.e. use the
wavefunctions found for the uncharged molecule to calculate the total
energy of the charged molecule).
I set in Section DFT (see attached file):
&SCF
SCF_GUESS RESTART
MAX_SCF 0
EPS_SCF ${EPS_SCF}
&OT
PRECONDITIONER FULL_SINGLE_INVERSE
&END
&OUTER_SCF
MAX_SCF 0
EPS_SCF ${EPS_SCF}
&END
&END SCF
along with
&PRINT
&V_HARTREE_CUBE
FILENAME ${FILE}_V.cube
&END V_HARTREE_CUBE
&MO_CUBES
FILENAME ${FILE}.cube
NLUMO 6
NHOMO 6
STRIDE 8 8 8
WRITE_CUBE .TRUE.
&END MO_CUBES
&PDOS
FILENAME ${FILE}.pdos
NLUMO 1000
&END PDOS
&END PRINT
However, it seems with no SCF iterations, none of the files I ask for are
printed, and the calculations output file has only the standard start and
end text:

Does anyone know how I can get this to work?? Also, I havent been able to
test if this works yet or not, but is it possible to do this using a
-RESTART.wfn file from the same system but with different charged state, or
will this flag an error?
cheers,
Nuri
