- TOPIC: PRESETTING OKIDATA PRINTER OPTIONS
-
-
- This simple program allows OKIDATA users to preset a number of
- options. The printer can then be satisfactorily used with the TYPE
- command (via CTL-P) or other normal listing programs.
-
-
- These options include: 10 or 16.5 chars. per inch
- 64 or 80 chars. per line
- 6 or 8 vertical lines per inch
- wide print
- reset to normal default values
-
-
- To use, turn on the Okidata printer and then call up SETOK.COM.
- It will display various options on its menu. Several selections can
- be made at the same time or a number reentered if mis-typed. If RET
- is immediately typed it defaults to a standard configuration.
-
-
- Default is: 10 characters per inch
- 80 characters per line
- 6 vertical lines per inch
-
-
- After the appropriate answers have been typed, hit RET to leave
- the program (or CTL-C). The printer now has the options you selected.
- The TYPE command (via CTL-P) may then be used or any other LIST routine
- desired.
-
- Obviously some options were not included. The SETOK.ASM file can
- be edited and then reassembled. (ASM.COM works fine for this purpose.)
- Even if the operator is not too familiar with using source code, there
- are enough examples already included to make the job of adding some ad-
- ditional feature fairly simple.
