The PT continues operation even while the screen hard copy is being printed.
S
It is necessary to ensure that the printer operation status (bit 7) among the PT
status notify bits is 0 (OFF) before starting printing.
S
Once screen printing has been started by operation of the PT status control bit,
it is not possible to stop printing.
S
If screen printing is specified during printing by the PT, the screen printing in-
struction is ignored.
The PT status control area must be allocated to a word in the host, accordingly,
no special settings are required for printing a hard copy of the screen.
The bit used to control the PT status (PT status control bit) is provided at the
fourth word (word n + 3) from the beginning in the PT status control area.
