 After purchasing a printer from'm having a lot of problems 
with printing. SOME OF THE Them, I decided SOME remains open.

 FIRST WHAT I STOLKNULSYA - this discrepancy ports on the 
printer and computer. This problem is solved quite simply. Y

ME AT THE SCORPIO Slot STANDARD-CENTRONICS, SO JUST NEED TO BUY 
IN ANY iBM'SKOY OFFICE STANDARD

CABLE AND ITS resolder. THIS IS THE STANDARD CENTRONICS'A 
Wiring: 


            1 - STROBE

            2 - GND

            3 - DATA 0

            5 - DATA 1

            7 - DATA 2

            9 - DATA 3

           11 - DATA 4

           13 - DATA 5

           15 - DATA 6

           17 - DATA 7

           1921 - BUSY

OTHER CONTACTS YOU DO NOT NEED.
 When you install your comp is still running, try to PRINT IMAGE
FROM shadow businesses. NOW YOU CAN OPEN
PROCEDURES OF THE SCREEN ONLY in my version of TRAC. Rom (3.42) 
for some reason, printed on 2 lines less than required.  The 
problem arose when I wanted to print the text ZX-WORD. INSTEAD 
OF RUSSIAN LETTERS AND PRINT pseudographics some sort of

Shnyaga. THE CASE THAT I SEE-6337 The default KOI-8 WITHOUT
Pseudographics. ZX-WORD GETS SUPPORT
Alternate encodings. Had to rewrite DRIVER:


        ORG # 5B00

        NOP

        JR INIT; INITIALIZATION

        PUSH AF
WAIT CALL # 1F54

        JR C, OK

        POP AF

        SCF; PUSH BREAK

        RET
OK XOR A

        IN A, (# FE)

        RLA

        JR C, WAIT; PRINTER NOT READY

        POP AF

        LD BC, # FFDD

        OUT (C), A; OUTPUT BYTE

        LD A, # 20

        LD BC, # 1FFD

        OUT (C), A

        NOP

        NOP

        XOR A

        OUT (C), A

        RET
INIT LD A, # 1B; Switches

        CALL # 5B03; printer on

        LD A, # 52; ALTERNATIVE

        CALL # 5B03; CODING

        LD A, # 0F

        CALL # 5B03

        RET

 There are still PROGRAM MICRO EDITOR Kovalevsky, BUT SHE DOES 
NOT WANT TO INSTALL Printer driver.

 Actually, I RECOMMEND PRINT TEXT
IS-DOS, only need to install DRIVER
Mscorp.lpr and put in PECHATALKE TYPE
PRINTER EPSON. THE USE OF TEXTS
With iBM (OR THE ZX-WORD) DO NOT FORGET THEM
Convert (MENU 'USER') in FORMAT
IS-EDITOR.
 Now about printing graphics. Judging by the description, 
SCREEN MANAGER v2.4 - A powerful program, but alas, with the 
printer it does not want WORK.

 IS ART STUDIO BUT IN PRESS TOO
Stretches the image. PROBABLY SHOULD
Experimenting with codes MANAGEMENT
Graphics. FIND AN INSTALLATION VERSION
ART STUDIO and experiment. IN RESPONSE
REQUEST FOR INPUT INTERFACE 255 (USER).
Here is an example DRIVERS:


        ORG # 8764
; This part contains five VECTORS
START DEFW STA; ACTUALLY START

        DEFW INIT; INITIALIZATION

        DEFW BUSY; READY PRINTER

        DEFW LPRINT; ISSUE BYTE

        DEFW LENGHT; LENGTH DRIVER
INIT RET
BUSY IN A, (# FE); zero flag is OFF,

        AND # 80; If the printer is busy

        RET
LPRINT LD BC, # FFDD

        OUT (C), A

        LD A, B

        AND # 1F

        LD B, A

        LD C, # FD

        LD A, # 21

        OUT (C), A

        XOR A

        OUT (C), A
END RET
LENGHT EQU END-START

 That's all. IF YOU DECIDE ISSUES printing graphics, or 
questions over the affected subject, then write to the journal.
