are the same numbers that you see in the last illustration. Also
note that the WIDTH statement in line 10 is for IBM PC BASIC;
the format may be different for your system.

In this program, line 20 assigns the graphics option (24-element
triple-density) with code 39. Code 42 sets the number of nozzle
columns at 42. Lines 80-140 contain 126 bytes of data (42 nozzle
columns X 3 bytes) for each nozzle column. Lines 30-60 print
the design that you see below.
Notice that the dots overlap quite a bit. This design was
printed using the triple-density 24-element graphics option
because the density is
directions.
