tant topic has a section of its own, and descriptions are clear but to the point.
You’ll find everything you need to know about the printer. We suggest that every-
body take the time to scan Chapters 1 and 2 - the “Setting Up Your Printer” and
“Getting to Know Your Printer” - no matter how knowledgeable you are.
For those of you who want to learn everything you can about your printer, you’ll
have a ball! With an almost infinite variety of dot graphics to explore, you’ll find
the interface cartridge manual fascinating - special effects, control codes, and
dot graphics.
We’ve supplied plenty of short, interesting programs that show off the features
of your new printer - all written in BASIC that will run on most computers.
So, gentle reader, with this manual we hand you the key to the wonderful world
of dot-matrix printing. May you enjoy years of handsome, fast, and carefree printing!
