# Sync Notes

Sinclair and Timex owners across USA will be adding LPRINT state merits to their favorite programs. They will soon find out that there are some bugs in the LPRINT Command. The problem is not in the printer, but in the Sinclair 8K ROM. The first bug involves the improper printing of numbers between .01 and .00001. The ZX Users Group of New York has found some additional bugs. STR$ sometimes does not work right with other string functions in LPRINT statements.
