FEATURES OF THE PRINTER
This printer is a compact, colour, dot-matrix printer that supports the
IBM/Epson commands and character sets. An excellent partner for your
personal computer, it prints text and graphics in black-and-white or six bright
colours. A print sample generated by a BASIC program is included inside
the back cover. With more advanced software, you can produce even more
striking colour graphics. Besides colour printing, some of the features of
this printer are:
l Extensive software support
Since it is compatible with the Epson and IBM printers, it works with
any software that supports those printers. That includes most word-pro-
cessing and graphics programs, spreadsheets, and integrated software
packages.
l Embeddable commands
Commands for NLQ type styles, colour printing, bold, italic, and ex-
tra-large characters can be embedded in documents without the escape code,
so you can use these features easily even if your word-processing software
does not support them.
l Easy operation
Clearly understandable lamp displays and beep tones provide immediate
feedback when you press the switches on the control panel. The four switches
can operate in combinations to perform a surprising variety of functions,
including margen setting and micro-alignment.
l Easy care and maintenance
The colour ribbon cartridge can be replaced in seconds; the print head
in a few minutes.
l Versatile paper handling
Single sheets, fanfold forms, and multi-copy forms (up to triple-ply)
are ail accepted, and you can use either tractor or friction feed. A speical
feature enables you to keep fanfold forms parked in readiness while printing
on other paper.
l Fast draht-quality printing
At 120 characters per second, the printer can print a page faster than
you can read it. Characters are naturally shaped, with true descenders.
l High-resolution near-letter-quality printing
When you select an NLQ type style, the printer slows down and employs
a dense matrix of up to 18 by 23 dots to print clear, well-formed characters.
l Large variety of type styles and sizes
The printer has one draht style and four NLQ styles (Courier, Sanserif,
and Orator with small capitals or lower case), plus italics for all styles, plus
condensed print, bold print, double-sized print, quadruple-sized print-see
the print sample inside the back cover.
