Printer Selection
The BASIC Development Software has printer setup parameters already defined
for a number of common printers. Also, the software is designed with enough
flexibility to accommodate almost any printer. Printer setup begins by selecting a
printer.

Figure 7.2 Printer Selection
Select your printer from the list provided. If it is not on the list, you can select
Create<Ins>
to access the
PRINTER DRIVER SETUP
screen where you can assign it
a name, initialization string, and print control codes.
If your printer is on the list provided and does not function properly or as you
would like it to (possibly from being an older model with slightly different control
codes), you can select
Edit<F3>
to modify the control codes.
IMPORTANT
Pressing
[Enter]
after making changes to the
PRINTER DRIVER
SETUP
screen saves those changes. If you have made changes that
you do not want to save or if you just want to leave the
PRINTER
DRIVER SETUP
screen, press
[Esc.]
.
