Configuring the Parameters for Printing

Printing
The first step is to set the parameters for printing. Once the parameters are
set, they will remain until you modify them.
After the Print key or the PRINT function key is pressed, the configuration
chart for printing is displayed. This chart and the default values for the
entries in the chart are shown in Figure 8-2. (If the parameters have
previously been created, these values will be shown in the chart.)
Figure 8-2 Printing Parameters
To select parameters from the chart, use the arrow keys on the VPU200
keyboard to move to the desired category and then place the cursor on the
parameter for the category that you want. Once the cursor is on the desired
parameter, press the Return key to choose that parameter. This will also
place the chosen parameter on the right side of the chart and move the
cursor to the next category.
For example, if you wanted to change the baud rate from 300 to 4800 baud,
you would place the cursor on the "4800" parameter under the "BAUD
RATE" category. Then you would press the Return key, which would change
the baud rate and show it on the right side of the screen.
NOTE: To set the date, place the cursor on the first position of the date entry
and type the numerical equivalent of the month; next, move the cursor to
the next position and type the day; finally, move the cursor to the last
position and type the last two digits of the year.
