FEATURES OF THE PRINTER This printer is a compact, convenient, monochrome printer without frills but with a fidl complement of features, making it an excellent partner for a personal computer. It supports the IBM/Epson printer commands and character sets, enabling it to print just about anything your computer can generate, both text and graphics.
Type styles are: J.11””’i!”f:”k C:hal” ””actel’”” s? Courier characters, SanSerif characters, ORATOR WITH SMALL CAPITALS, OR with lower case characters, and ITALICS FOt- all isfY”Iziw:. Print pitches are: Pica pitch, Elite pitch, Condensed pica pitch, Cortdensedelite pitch, proportional spacing for all pitches, Expand.

We will start the easy way with semiautomatic loading. 1. Check that the release lever is down and the bail lever back (bail closed), then switch power on.

The control panel switches can be pressed singly to perform the oper- ations indicated by their names. Other functions can be obtained by holding these switches down when you turn the printer’s power on. Still further functions can be executed by pressing the control panel switches in corn- --- bination.
1! .- [ ,. i.. While you are feeding lines, if you also press the On Line switch, the paper will fked to the top of the next page. This is explained later. When power is on, always use the Paper Feed switch instead of the platen knob to feed paper. Turn the platen knob only when power is off.
In IBM mode (when DIP switch 1-6 is OFF), the pitch selections cycle as follows: Pica (10 characters per inch) Elite (12 characters per inch) Condensed pica (17 characters per inch) Proportional pica Proportional elite There is no condensed elite pitch in the IBM mode.
- I I l— I j . . 1 !- 1 — I 1 . The Orator style is unique in two ways. First, it is a dot larger (higher) than the other styles. This makes it a good choice for labels and other text requiring high visibility. A little extra line spacing helps when Orator is used.
Long test pattern: Paper Feed switch If held down during power-up, this switch prints a long test pattern. The test cycles endlessly. To stop the test you must switch power off.
~ ,- 1; :.. . - L - -. — L - ‘- ,-. L i- i The following BASIC program is a simple test you can run in hexade- cimal mode: 10 FOR 1=0 TO 255 20 LPRINT CHR$(I) ; 30 NEXT I 40 LPRINT 50 END If your system passes the codes directly to the printer without changing them, you will get a printout like Figure 2-5.
Notice that the printer receives decimal code 13 (hex OD) together with hex OA, which is really decimal 10. In addition, the printer does not receive decimal code 26 (hex 1A). To avoid this problem, change line 20, and add lines 100 to 120 as shown in either of the following lists.
Before parking fanfold forms, tear off all but the last page, leaving less (at least three inches less) than a full page showing above the top cover. 1. Press the On Line switch to set the printer off-line. 2. Press the Print Pitch switch and hold it down.
1. Press the On Line switch to set the printer off-line. 2. Press the On Line switch again and hold it down. 3, Press the Print Pitch switch. The paper will start moving backwards in a series of small steps. When you want to stop, release both switches.
5. Press the Paper Feed switch and hold it down. three switches down. In about three seconds you simalimz that the buffer has been cleared. Continue holding all will hear a beep tone 6. R;lease-all three switches, make any necessary control panel settings, then set the printer back on-line.

~: I L . -. . . -. L L . ‘— . chapter 3 USING THE PRINTER WITH COMMERCIAL SOFTWARE There is an abundance of commercial software available: spreadsheet programs, word-processing programs, graphics programs, and more. This printer will work with any program that supports a Star, Epson or IBM dot-matrix printer.
A few installation programs may ask you not to select a printer but to describe what your printer can do. The answers to the most often asked questions are: Yes, this printer can do a backspace; and Yes, it can do a hardware form feed.
The character pitch can be selected from the control panel before you start printing, or possibly by an initialization sequence as described next. 1- hitialization sequence One of the installation options may be to specify the commands your software sends at the beginning of each printing job.
the right position on the page, a short distance below the perforation. With power off, you can align the forms by turning the platen knob. When power is on, use the Paper Feed switch on the control panel. Type style and pitch selection If your software does not control the type style and pitch, you must make these selections on the control panel.

I 1“ i l’- -. ,. ,,. chapter 4 USING THE PRINTER WITH DOS AND BASIC Although you will probably do most of your printing with the aid of commercial software, at times you will want to employ direct commands or programs of your own. This chapter will give you some ideas.
— To switch printer output off, press CTRL-PRTSC or CTRL-P again. Each time you press this key combination, hard copy toggles from on to off or from off to on. — PROGRAMMING THE PRINTER WITH DOS COMMANDS If your system includes the file PRINT.COM you can use the main DOS printing command.
-. -. i L ( L i- L , L ( ‘L I 9- ,, I L ,. If you want a particular type style, print pitch, or right or left margin, you can make these settings from the control panel before you start printing. See Chapter 2. If you print from the DOS command level very often, it will be ad- vantageous to create a printer setup file.

— — . Appendix C DOWNLOAD CHARACTER GENERATOR With this printer you can create new characters and symbols download their dot data, and have them pz-inted in place of selected characters in the regular character set.
The dot matrix for a draft-quality character is 8 cells high and 11 cells wide. Figure C-1 shows the matrix with the car symbol filled in. Note that there are no pairs of horizontally adjacent dots. The pins in the print head cannot tire fast enough to print adjacent dots in the horizontal direction.
t By moving the cursor and pressing the Fl, F2, and F3 keys you can quickly build up the dot pattern. If necessary you can clear all dots by pressing F4 and start over. When the character is complete, press Return to store the dot data in the computer’s memory.
— If you select near letter quality, the character box is the same size but now has 16 (high) x 23 (wide) dot positions. Each dot is represented by two adjacent sharp signs, occupying its own position and the position to the right.
