We've covered 10 whole chapters so far-that's about half the man-
ual. It's time to look back over our shoulders at where we've been and
ahead to where we are going. So far, you've learned about a substan-
tial number of printer features. In fact, you've covered nearly all the
features the FX-80 has to offer. But the best is yet to come.
The rest of the chapters are devoted to user-defined characters and
graphics. If you have an ounce of creativity in your bones, you'll find
these topics fascinating. They open the door to a whole new way of
controlling the printer. Before you walk in, why not take a break?
