Printer Setup File
To access the Printer Setup screen, press The Printer Setup file ('P) may contain a number of
records. Each record contains control codes for one
particular printer model. Any one of these records can be
selected as the system printer.
Use
user # or the port # preceded by an asterisk (*) to which
you desire to print. The user # option, of course, is only
available if you have a multi-user system, and directs
output from the local user to a specific user. The port #
option applies if you have more than one printer port on
your computer. Load the correct record and enter your
output option. Press If there is no record for the printer you want, you will
need to enter one.
When you are finished entering the control codes, press
For the Code, enter a brief alpha-numeric code to identify
the printer. Do not use a code starting with an
exclamation point (!) because this designates the printer
setup for the system and its users.
For the Printer Type, enter the brand name and model
number.
The remaining fields are for printer control codes. The
fields numbered from 02 to 09 are for setting various
pitches of printing. There are also fields for underlining
and fields for selecting the number of line per inch. Skip
any that are unavailable. Printer control codes are
sometimes listed in the printer manual, but sometime these
codes have to be ordered from the printer manufacturer.
Enter each control code as a series of numerals, with
three digits specifying the ASCII number of each character
from the printer manual. For example, ESC A would be
entered as 027065.
Selecting a Printer Setup
Step 2 - Select it with The fields on the lower part of the screen are for
entering printer control codes. This should only be done
by people with the technical know-how required.
This is a brief alpha-numeric code used to identify
the printer. Do not use a code starting with an
(!). This designates the printer setup for the
system and users.
This is the printer brand name and model number.
The rest of the fields on this screen are for
printer control codes. These should be used
only by people that have the required exper-
tise. In other words, people that know what
they're doing.
Use this field to specify where you want to send
your documents when you print. Enter M, P, S, or
the user number (0-9), to which you desire to
print. The user # option is only available if you
have a multi-user system, and directs output from
the local user to a specific user.
Place a Y here if the printer uses Sheets of paper
(Ex 8 1/2 x 11). If report 3-38 is selected a "Y"
will switch from preprinted to Laser Form.
Normally your dealer will configure your printer for you.
You will need to configure your system only if you are
installing a printer model for which the system was not
configured, if you are moving a printer to another user,
or if you are changing the default printer for a user.
