Change Printer functions.

This section will allow you to define some parameters… Change the text width (32-132), DO NOT CHANGE width when there is text or it will cut words and screw up your file.

You can change the left margin (0-100)

Set printer characters (1 to 4)…these characters are sent before the text to set the printer, Bold, Italics or whatever…

Page mode (0-255)…0 means no paging, 1-255 means starting printing from page XX.

Goto BASIC…

This will allow you to load your own print driver…and allows you to save your own customized version of EASYprint (GO TO 8000). The print driver should be loaded above 64000 or in the printer buffer.

P.S. An AERCO compatible print driver is recorded after this program…it is fully relocatable, just load it at address XX and RANDOMIZE USR XX to activate. This print driver is included because the one given with the interface stops with a out of paper error and you cannot get back to printing if this happens, it will just go back to the MAIN MENU.
