Using Your Printer
If you have a word processing or other commercial software pro-
gram, just load the program into your computer, follow the printing
instructions, and watch your LX-90 print.
If your software program requires you to specify which printer you
are using, see Appendix E for instructions.
If you plan to use your LX-90 for printing program listings, load a
program and use the appropriate listing command for the program-
ming language you are using.
For example, if you are using the ProDOS® BASIC that comes with
your IIc, type NEW and then enter a simple program such as the one
below:
10 FOR X=1 TO 5
20 PRINT
30
NEXT X

and press RETURN, you do not see anything on the screen, but the
LX-90 prints a listing of the program. To return to normal operation,
press the
control
press RETURN.
