AMP was designed to work with Apple printer cards. If you have a Grappler, Pkaso, or other card, the letters printed by AMP may not look correct (i.e. lines are truncated and printed on separate lines).
To fix this problem, you have to change one line of BASIC code so that AMP will run correctly with your card.
Here's what to do:
o Boot your backup copy of the AMP disk and press the ESCAPE key twice. You should now see a square bracket: ]
o Type
LIST 1705
and press RETURN. You will see a line of BASIC code that looks like this:
1705 PRINT CHR$ (9);"80N";
o Determine the correct replacement line for your card from the table below. Then, with your cursor next to the square bracket, type in the correct line of code EXACTLY as shown below.
If your card does not appear, you can experiment with the codes listed here since your card may be compatible with one of these. Otherwise, consult your interface card's manual for the code your card requires to turn off echoing. Then, put it in the same form as line 1705 listed above. It probably begins with a CTRL-I (represented by the CHR$ (9) part of line 1705) and ends with a number and letter combination (similar to the 80N part of line 1705).
For this card Type in the following and press RETURN
