We find that the set of the exceptional curves and effective divisors with selfintersection zero, $\cal S$, plays a very important rule in checking the nefness and $k$-very ampleness of a line bundle on a Del pezzo Surface. We show that a line bundle L is nef if and only if it is spanned and that L is $k$-very ample if and only if the intersection with all the elements of $\cal S$ is greater or equal than k. In the first part of the paper we give a complete numerical description of the elements of $\cal S$ . %U http://arxiv.org/abs/alg-geom/9502012v1
