11801C User Manual
H 8 Pin supports several eight pin dot matrix printers, including the Epson
R FX80 and Epson EX800. The IBMR ProPrinterT and Epson RX80 may
also be used, but only the HiRes screen format provides useful output
for these printers. All the supported printers typically use the PRINTER
(Centronics) connector.
Set the configuration switches on your printer as recommended in its
manual except set No Auto Line Feed, No Perf Skip, and Inbuf On.
H 24 Pin supports the Extended Epson command set for 24 pin dot matrix
printers, including the Epson LQ500, Epson LQ1000, NECR P6, and
NEC P7. These printers typically use the PRINTER (Centronics) connec
tor.
Set the configuration switches on your printer as recommended in its
manual except set No Auto Line Feed, No Auto Carriage Return, No Perf
Skip, and Inbuf On.
H LsrJet B/W supports the HP ThinkJet and HP LaserJet printers. The
ThinkJet should be used in HP graphics mode, not Epson emulation
mode. For the HP ThinkJet, either Draft or HiRes screen mode may be
used, but HiRes mode will be very slow. Only Draft screen mode will
produce usable output with the HP LaserJet. Either the PRINTER (Cen
tronics ) connector, RS 232 C connector or the GPIB connector may be
used.
H Bitmap Dump provides the ability to acquire the screen data for external
processing. For example, you can use this option to send the display
data to a computer. The format of this information is determined by the
Data Format selector. (Data format is discussed on page 3 92.) You will
typically want to use the GPIB or RS 232 C connector for this type of
transfer.
H HPGL supports the HPGL color plotter command set. When HiRes is
selected under Screen Format, an HPGL hardcopy will show graticules,
axis labels, all waveforms and the major menus at the bottom of the
screen. You can suppress the plotting of the major menus by selecting
Draft under Screen Format. Color graded displays are not plotted with
HPGL. Supported plotters include the Tek HC100, HP 7475, and
HP 7550. These printers can be connected to the PRINTER (Centronics)
connector. The HP 7474 and HP 7550 may be connected to the GPIB or
RS 232 C connector.
H DeskJet Clr supports the HP color inkjet printers. For the DeskJet,
Screen Format can be set to: Dithered, Draft, Reduced, or Screen.
Either the PRINTER (Centronics ) connector, RS 232 C connector or the
GPIB connector may be used.
