PRINT can be easily modified to send your text file out the
RS-232 port instead of the parallel printer port. This is
useful for those of you with serial printers, or for people
who would like to upload a formatted file to another
computer. The following patch was tried by me using a null
modem and another computer. PRINT successfully passed
formatted files to the other computer. I hope those of you
with serial printers will give PRINT a try and report the
results.
To install the patch, go to BASIC and carefully type the
following:
POKE 60200,62
POKE 60201,2
POKE 60300,62
POKE 60301,2
POKE 60311,50
POKE 60312,110
To use PRINT with the serial output, first go to TELCOM and
set your communications parameters. Then go to PRINT and
use it normally. I'd appreciate some feedback regarding
this patch. It did work going computer-to-computer. I hope
it works for printers as well.
Enjoy the program!
