1 ; Number
of
identical
pin
strikes
When using a worn out ribbon, the number
of
identical pin strikes can be
regulated. This will,
of
course, result in a much longer printing time and is
not practical when printing in high resolution.
Yes ;
Optimize
printing
for
the
left
margin?
The unprinted part
of
the left margin is cut
off
and replaced with spaces.
This saves time and unnecessary print head movement.
If
your printer has
trouble with this setting, switch the optimizing to "no".
No
;
Pixel
correction
"Yes" delivers better results when printing thick fonts in
the
second highest
resolution.
Yes ;
Interpolation
of
graphics
and
normal
GEOS
;
fonts.
Yes interpolates graphics, normal GEOS fonts and very large LQ fonts.
This is just the default for the print menu Interpolation option.
The Connection File (nlQConnect
n
)
The Print System reads the manner in which the printer is connected from
the "LQConnect" file. Parallel
or
serial information, device and secondary
address numbers are contair)ed in this file.
It
is normally not necessary to
modify this file. You may have cause
to
change the device number from 4
to
5
if
you're working with two serial printers.
On the system disk are 3 "GC" variations
of
the LQConnect file. "LQ
Connect GCSlow" can be tested out
if
"LQConnect GC" does not work. We
recommend the use
of
"LQConnect GCFast" only
if
your printer works with
"LQConnect GC". That file causes the Print System to use the fastest
possible data transfer method which may not work with all computers and
printers (especially with GEOS 128 in 2 MHz mode).
The Printer Adaptation
Like the other configuration files, the printer adaptation file is a normal
geoWrite document. In most cases
it
is not useful
to
alter this file, as an
adaptation file for practically every available printer is supplied. You should
only attempt
to
alter the adaptation file
if
you're well versed in printers
and
printer codes. Even then, care should be taken, as the structure
of
the
adaptation file is very complicated.
