Printing and Saving a Waveform

This section describes how to print out the displayed waveform on the built-in printer (when the /B5 option is installed) or save

it to a storage medium.  You can also print waveforms to a USB or network printer (with the /C10 option installed).  Or, if you

specified other storage media (floppy disk or Zip disk at the time of purchase, or PC card), you can also save to the installed

medium.  You can also save to an external SCSI device, network drive (with the /C10 option installed), or USB storage.

Printing Screen Images on the Built-In Printer

User’s manual section 11.2, “Printing Using the Built-In Printer”

You can print the waveform exactly as it appears on screen.  Before printing, follow the procedure in section 11.1 of

the user’s manual to load roll paper into the built-in printer.

Example of a Printout

 Note

If you press the PRINT key after the 

SHIFT key, the PRINT menu 

appears.  

Settings using this menu are not 

required by this operation guide, but 

it may be useful to know that you can 

specify the print destination (built-in 

printer, USB printer, or network 

printer), the printing format, or 

comments (printed at the bottom of 

the screen image).
