Installation:
To install Word Processing to drive any of the OEM printers
listed above through either of the interfaces listed above, select "I/O Master
/OEM Printer" at Install's printer menu (Section 13.4.4). The same selection
works with all the supported OEM printers and interfaces.
The OEM daisy
printer driver is pre-configured for the standard OEM printer port numbers and
bit assignments used with the "I/O Master" interface. (Extensive modification
would be required to drive another interface or to change the port numbers.)

paper runs out, or the cover is opened. Install a new ribbon, new paper, or
close the cover, and printing will continue with no character loss.
