MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE BASIC OPERATION
You can obtain hardcopy printouts from the bulit-in printer port of the MFJ-1278B.
Hardcopy printouts are done with the same printer that you used in the other modes of
operation. To make hardcopy printouts type the following at the a_cmd: command prompt:
PRINT ON <ENTER>
to activate the built-in printer port. Ensure that the printer is turned on and is ON-LINE.
Now all AMTOR received will go to the printer port, until a PRINT OFF command is
issued, or you exit back to the main cmd: line.
