When using your printer with an IBM PS/2, PC-AT or compatible, you will probably be using PC-DOS or MS-DOS as an operating system. A number of software tricks may be useful here. This chapter is not, however, a substitute for the operating system manuals supplied with your computer. To learn how to print files, etc. it is best to read the relevant [...]

Make sure that the DIP switches are set for the correct printer emulation, and that you have selected the appropriate character set using the DIP switches. If you are in doubt about the configuration of your application software, seek expert advice. Your software supplier will probably be your most qualified reference. EMBEDDING PRINTER COMMANDS Ma[...]

If you do not use these commands or the panel controls, the printer will print standard-size, Tms Romn characters. The printer supports various commands in addition to the above, such as quadruple-size printing. Most of these other commands consist of the escape code followed by one or more letters or numbers. If your software enables you to place [...]

If you print from the DOS command level very often, it will be advantageous to create a printer setup file. Then instead of setting font style etc. manually each time, you can complete the setup with a single command from your computer. For example, you can create a file containing printer commands to select Economy mode, and select elite pitch wit[...]

For greater convenience you can make a batch file that will setup the printer and print any specified file witha single commzmd. To create suchabatchfile withthename SJPRINT.BAT, type in the first four lines shown next. AZ mems to press the CTRL and Z keys simultaneously.

How the program works This program begins by assigning anumberof printer commands to BASIC string variables (lines 1000 to 1050). You can find most of these commands near the beginning of chapter 6. The WIDTH “LPT1 :“ 255 statement in line 1070 means infinite line width. It prevents the IBM-PC from inserting unwanted carriage returns and line f[...]

MAINTENANCE Essentially, your printer is a robust piece of equipment, but should be treated with a modicum of care in order to avoid malfunctions. For example: ● ● ● ● ● Keep your printer in a “comfortable” environment. Roughly speaking, if you are comfortable, then the environment is suitable for your printer (see Chapter 1). Do not [...]
