Key Functions
The Local Print key is used to print the current screen or initiate the
Print Form operation. You can print the contents of the current
screen starting with the row containing the cursor by pressing the
Local Print key on its own. Keyboard entered data will be ignored
while the print is in progress. You can abort the print operation by
pressing the Local Print key again.
You can initiate the Print Form operation by holding down the Shift
key then pressing Local Print. This performs the same function as
Local Print pressed on its own, except that only data appearing at
full intensity will be printed when protected text is disabled. When
protected text is enabled, only unprotected text will be printed.
The Cursor Type key enables you to change the appearance of the
cursor. By default the cursor is displayed as a reverse video block.
Pressing and releasing the Cursor Type key one or more times will
cause the cursor display to change in the following order:
Blinking underline
Invisible cursor
Blinking reverse video block
Non-blinking reverse video block (default)
Pressing the N/C key will cause the display of the current text region
to toggle between normal and compressed character spacing mode.
In normal mode the display is 81 columns wide. Pressing the N/C
key once will change the display width to 135 columns. Note that the
margins will not be affected by this key.
