ruler line to print pica, elite and condensed width pitches. In ad-
dition, you can use a similar method to print in letter quality.
The print control codes can be redefined to enhance the final
product of your document. The boldface, underline, superscript
and subscript functions require only a slight "recoding" of infor-
mation in the printer driver. And we have some suggestions
for
changing the characteristics
of the other print control codes to
use italic, expanded,
emphasized
and italic-underline
print.
With these options, you will have even more flexibility printing
with this printer.

n Redefining
pitch settings and print control codes
In order to change the settings used in the document ruler line
and the print control codes, it is necessary
to edit ASCII code
decimal
values
in the
System
Functions
portion
of your
EasyWriter
Il program.
(For more details about ASCII codes,
please refer to Chapter 4.)
Your
printer
is considered
a Type
B printer
by the
EasyWriter
II program.
Before making
any changes
in the
printer driver, you should first check to be sure the printer selec-
tion is set for printer Type B (Option 7 on the System Functions
menu.)
Then
follow
the
instructions
in Appendix
B of your
EasyWriter
II User's Manual to reconfigure
Type B printers.
To become more familiar with the reconfiguration
process and
its terms and to make the instructions
in this section easier to
understand,
we suggest you read through Appendix B first.
In these few paragraphs,
we'll show you the ASCII decimal
values we feel provide
good flexibility
in printing
with this
printer. You should follow the instructions
hands-on with your
own EasyWriter
II program.
The changes you will make are for pitch settings and print con-
trol codes (also called font support). However, all the screens in-
volved will be explained as you see them displayed.
From the System Functions
Menu, choose Option 9 (Recon-
figure Printer Type B) and the printer name will be displayed.
Type over the present printer name as follows:
1.
Printer
Name
[Letter Quality Printer]
