DESIGNING YOUR OWN DRAFT CHARACTERS

Designingand printingyour own charactershas two requirements:first,

designingtheshapeofthecharacter,calculatingthedatanecessarytomake

the shape,and sendingthat datato the printer,and secondly,sendingthe

commandto printthedownloadedcharactersinsteadof the regularcharac-

ters. There are anumberof designconstraintsfor downloaddraft quality

Wedecidedthatourcarsymbolwillnotbea“descender”,so afigure“l” is

a“O”nextto Descender.

Next, you must specifythe left space and the last print column of the

character.

Beingableto specifythe widthof the characterallowsyouto specifythe

DEFINING YOUR OWN NLQ CHARACTERS

As youprobablynoticed,NLQcharactersareprintedby two passesof the

printhead.Halfofthecharacterisprintedonthefirstpass,andtheremainder

onthesecondpass.Thepaperisrolleduphalfadotheightinbetweenpasses

to letthe printheadprintdotson the secondpassthatoverlaptheprevious

dots,in otier to fillin the spacesandproducedensercharacters.Addition-

ally,tie print head speedis halved,and the dots are printedat doublethe

densityof draftcharacters.Forthisreason,NLQcharacterscancontainup

to 23 dotsin thehorizontaldirection.

Fundamentally,theprocessto defineandprintdownloadedNLQcharacter

is the sameas for draftcharactem,exceptthat youmust supplyaboutfour

timesasmuchcharacterdata,andyoumustdesignthecharacterwiththe?SVO

passes of the print head in mind. There are small diffextmceswith the

standardmodein the way the attributeinformationis processedalso.

In the draftqualitymodethe attributebytecarriesthe descenderdata,and

specifiesthe left spaceandthecharacterwidth.In theNLQmode,the first

bit also carries the descenderdata, and the next three bits describethe

character’sleft space as with the draft charactem,but the last four bits

describethe rightspace.Appropriateallocationof datain thesesevenbits

lets you place the character whe~ you like within the grid, with the

nxtrictionthatthe charactermustbe at least9dotswide.

UsethegridinFigure5-4to helpplotthedata.Duetothetwo-passprocess,

NLQcharacterscancontainupto 16dotsvertically.ml tom23arethedata

forthe firstpass, andm24to m46are the datafor the secondpass.

INSTALLING APPLICATION SOFTWARE WITH

YOUR PRINTER

Wheninstallingapplicationsoftware,youmayfindthatyourprinteris not

specificallymentionedin the listsof printersgiven for installation.How-

ever, this should pose no problem. Read this section, and guidelines

providedwith yoursoftwareon printerinstallation.

If youhaveyourprintersetup in standardmode,thenchooseanEpsonLX-

850as yourprinterto be selected.

Ifthisisnotmentioned,chooseoneofthefollowing(inorderof prefe~nce):

StarNX-1000/LC-10,StarND-10/15,EpsonFX86e,EpsonFX286e.

If youhave yourprintersetup withthe DIP switchesto emulatean IBM

ProprinterIII, simplychoosethisfromthe list of printersavailablein the

applicationsoftwarelist.

If the IBMProprinterIII is notmentioned,usePmprinterII or Pmprinter.

Ifyoursoftwmpackage doesnotmentionprintembyname,butasksinstead

whatfeaturesyourprinteris capableof, the most commonquestionsare:

“Canyourprinterperformabackspace?”and“Canit do ahardwareform

PROGRAMMING THE PRINTER WITH DOS

COMMANDS

If yoursystemincludesthe filePRINT.COMyou can use the main DOS

printingcommand.Simplytypethe wordPRINTfollowedby thenameof

the file you want to print. To print afde named README.DOC,for

example,type:

A>PR .D

The computermay respond with the followingmessage, asking which

printerto use:

N o 1i d [ :

If yourcomputerisconnectedto onlyoneprinter,pressRETURNto select

the default choice (PRN). Printing will begin and the A> prompt will

reappear.You can executeothercommandsor programswhilethe fde is

beingprinted.

AsinglePRINTcommandcanprinttwo or morefiles.List the fde names

consecutivelyon the sameline,or usewild-cardcharactem(* and?). Each

file willbe printedstartingon anewpage.The PRINTcommandalsohas

controloptions.For example,youcantermimte aprintingjob in progress

withthenoption.(Theprintermaynotstopprintingimmediatelyasthere

maybeconsiderabledatastoredaheadinitsbuffer.)Forthen option,type:

A>P

thePRNdevicenamein COPYorTYPEcommandssuchasthefollowing:

IfyouprintfromtheDOScommandlevelveryoften,itwillbeadvantageous

to cn?ateaprintersetupfde. Theninsteadof settingfontetc.manuallyeach

time, you can complete the setup with asingle command from your

computer.For example,youcan createafilecontainingprintercommands

to selectnear letter quality,and selectelitepitchwith the Standardmode.

Youcan find the commandsin Chapter4. We suggestthe following:

ANearletterquality <ESC> “X” “l”

●Elitepitch <ESC> “!” <1>

<ESC>“!” <1>is apowerfulcommandthat,in additionto selectingelite

pitch,cancelsunwantedfeaturessuch as underliningwhichmightbe left

from previous commands.The angle brackets around the <1> indicate

charactercode 1,whichis accmtmlcode,not theprintabledigit“l”.

You may wantto placeadditionalcommandsin this ffle,such as left and
