ESC &

In normal SuperScript operation, some of the escape se

quences shown above put a graphic character on the screen.

These have been changed to allow the graphic character to be

printed. Other characters must be printed using the ESC

(numeric) sequence, even though the graphic could be generated

on the screen with CTRL (numeric), because SuperScript would

interpret the occurrence of the actual graphic on the screen as

an instruction to process a shifted-space,, soft-hyphen, or la

beled block. Use CTRL (numeric) for the graphics on the

odd-number keys (1,3,5,7,9) and ESC (numeric) for the graph

ics on the even-number keys (2,4,6,8,0). In the case of 3, 5,

and 7, either CTRL or ESC will work.

When using ESC ’ (apostrophe) to force a carriage return

without a line feed, you must adjust the right margin before and

after the line where it occurs. The right margin "count" does

not start over at 1 when a shifted-retum is printed, so you have

to fool SuperScript by telling it you want an extra-long line.

Use the Control key to display and print the other graphics

shown on the other NON-ALPHABETICAL keys. As always,

the 4023 printer does not print every graphic correctly, so print

out a trial version of any document you compose using graphics

and check it carefully. In some cases, the graphic printed

depends on whether is was created with or without the shift key

and whether or not the printer is in graphics mode at the time it

is output. The keypad’s decimal point key will even generate 3

different graphics, depending on the circumstances!

The graphics characters on the alphabetic keys will not be

shown on the screen, but will be printed out as graphics, if you

use the ESC > function. All subsequent capitalized (shifted)

alphabetic letters on the same line (up until ESC ; or until the

end of the line) will be printed out as the corresponding graphic

character, while all lower-case letters will be printed out as

capitals. To get a lower-case letter after an alphabetical key

graphic, use ESC ; to switch the printer back into its normal text

mode printing.

Remember that graphics printing will not continue on the

next line unless you use ESC > again. SuperScript sends a

control-q, chr$(17) or cursor-down, to the printer at the begin

ning of each line, forcing it out of graphics mode.

Existing SuperScript files should be used with caution,

especially if they use reverse-field or enhanced printing. There

may be some as yet undiscovered side-effects with this program.

If you intend to use the graphics option of choosing the Epson

printer at the startup menu, even though you are using a 4023

printer, you should avoid this program as there seem to be some

definite side-effects on printing.

Use the new chart included in this report if you have trouble

finding the right combination of keys to produce a desired

graphic. First, find the graphic you want to use in the gray

manual, page 117. Note the number identified with it in the

CHR$ column. Then find that number in the left column of this

chart, and press the keys it tells you. When use of the control

key is called for, you must hold down the control key while

pressing the next key; don’t let it up too soon! Use the keys on

the keypad only when it specifically tells you to use them instead

of the same key on the main keyboard.

The first part of the chart shows the keystrokes you can use

when the printer is in its lower-case mode.

The second part of the chart shows the keystrokes you can

use for the graphics that can be produced only when the printer

is in its graphics mode. The sequence ESC > is in parenthesis

to remind you that the printer must be in graphics mode. Do

not key in the parentheses! You do not necessarily have to key

in the ESC > sequence if you are using several of these graphics

together. Once you have set the printer to the graphics mode, it

will stay there until you reset it to lower-case, or until the end

of the print line, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. "You will have

to use ESC ; after these graphics to get back to lower-case mode

on the same line, where you need to be for printing graphics

shown in the first part of this chart, or for text.

Remember, SuperScript will command the printer to use its

lower-case mode at the beginning of every print line, so choose

your margins carefully. If you have a print right-margin of less

than 80, AND you key in ESC > once followed by several of

these graphics, AND the printer reaches that right-margin in the

middle of these graphics, the ones that are forced to a new line

will not be printed as the graphics you want because the printer

is forced into lower-case mode at the start of the new line.
