- P1124-SET
- Versions 1.2 & 1.3
- Copyright 1989, Gene Elias
-
- This is a setup program for the Panasonic KX-P1124 24-pin dot
- matrix printer. Although this printer has a very convenient EZ Set
- Operator panel, I found that setting some features via the panel was a
- clumsy operation for me. I still find it more convenient to set some
- features from software menus, ergo this program.
-
- PAN1124E is for use with the printer set to the Epson LQ2500 mode.
- PAN1124I is for use with the printer set to the IBM Proprinter X24
- mode. According to Panasonic Tech Support, the only way to switch
- between the IBM Proprinter and Epson LQ2500 modes is via the front
- panel "Initial Setup" mode. See pages 3-12 to 3-16 of your manual.
-
- When you first enter the program, you will see a logo. If the
- version is 1.2, then it is for the IBM Proprinter X24 mode. If the
- version is 1.3, then it is for the Epson LQ2500 mode.
-
- The menu bar may be moved with either the up/down arrow cursor
- keys or with the space bar.
-
- To select a menu item, either point to the menu choice with the
- moving bar and press <Enter> or simply press the highlighted letter
- for that menu item.
-
- Pressing <Esc> will exit from any menu or from the program, if you
- are at the main menu.
-
- If you run the print test with the printer in IBM mode and set to
- Graphics Character Set I, you will get a beep and a formfeed somewhere
- in the middle of the test. It's not the fault of this program.
-
- I've omitted several commands that I seldom use, ie., graphics
- density, downline load, etc. If you find this program useful and
- would like some features added, just drop me a line or leave me a
- message on one of the BBS's mentioned below. If time permits, and you
- say the magic word 'please,' I'll be happy to modify the program, if
- it is possible.
-
- There is no charge for using this utility. If hope you find this
- program useful; if so, a card or message warm fuzzy would be welcome.
- If you find a bug, PLEASE let me know the whereabouts of the pest.
