Information about “PRINTER CONTROL PROGRAM - PRINTER TEST”

PRINT CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) is a time saver for busy computer users.
Memory resident, it gives your PrtScr command all the power of your
printer with a few keystrokes.

Pop it up while running any other program.  PCP menus let you send
control codes to the printer to select print modes.  Print any
rectangular area of the screen.  Set margins on the printed page.  The
printed image shows underlining, high intensity, reverse video and high
order ASCII characters - whatever your printer can support.

PCP lets you type anywhere on the screen.  You can use
this to edit or annotate displays before printing.  The original screen
is restored when you leave PCP.

PCP is a handy way to enhance reports, make documentation more
readable, or just to get access to the full capability of your
printer.

PRN-TEST provides for testing the complete instruction sets of
Centronics 102A printers, standard Okidata printers, or any printer
compatible with the IBM graphics printer.  Also, makes your printer show
you ALL the possible characters it can print!

Choose to print the entire screen or any rectangular portion of it.  The
screen segment you choose to print can be enhanced with whatever        
printing options your hardware can support.  No more stopping to get out
the printer manual to reprogram printers.  No more swapping print       
definition files.                                                       
                                                                        
Hold down two keys and menus start popping up on screen.  Decision time.
Will it be compressed, near letter quality, bold or extra bold print?   
You can underline, change print size and line spacing, print in bold    
letters, print reverse-screen, change margins and anything else your    
printer can do.  You can even send control character sequences to the   
printer from within other programs.                                     
                                                                        
PCP is a handy way to enhance reports, make documentation more readable,
emphasize training material, or just send incredibly attractive memos.
