This method is normally restricted to features that can be found on
almost all printers, such as bold and underlining.
Some programs also provide a way of placing complete printer
commands in the text. These commands may or may not be visible on
your screen. This method has the advantage of allowing you to use any
printer command, not just a limited set. To make use of it, however, you
need to understand how to use the printers commands.
Check the manual for your word processor to see if you can place
printer commands in your text. If this is possible, use the Command
Summary in this manual to find the command,
and
use the manual for
your word processor to find how to assign the command.
If your EX is not printing correctly check both the EX and your
word
processor and review this checklist:
Make sure you’ve selected the correct printer.
Carefully read the printer setup and installation information in your
word processor’s manual.
Check the printer options that may be part of the installation or
setup section (line feeds, interface, etc.).
Make sure your
word
processor is capable of sending the proper
commands to your printer.
If you’re still having difficulty printing, check the troubleshooting
section in your word processor’s manual and Appendix D of this
manual.
Spreadsheets
Although spreadsheets seldom use as many printing styles as word
processors, they do have some very specific requirements.
Installation and column width
If your spreadsheet program provides a list of printers, use the list on
page 3-1 to find the proper selection. If your spreadsheet doesn’t have a
printer setup routine, carefully read the program’s manual for
information on printing.
