After typing your text, you may go either to the second menu,
which will permit you to print your text, or to the third menu where
you may send Escape or control codes to the printer for special
characters or effects. It is not necessary to type the entire ASCII
codes. Instead, you have the option of selecting "ESC" or lOCH R$".
For example, if you wish to send CHR$(27); "W"; CH R$(1); to the
printer for printing of wide characters, you simply need to select
the "ESC" option and type "W1" and then hit <CR>, and the code
will be sent to the printer. After sending the codes, you may go
back to the 2nd menu and print your text again.
The following is a listing of the commands:

These commands may vary if you are not using an IBM-PC,but

variations, please refer to the computer-specific appendices at the
