Section 2. Instructions for Formatting Printed Documents 117
NO#PAGE
Cancels a#PAGE instruction. When you issue a NO#PAGE instruction, page
numbers are no longer printed at the bottom of each page.
OTHER
Lets you tell the computer that the printer you are using is not made by
Commodore. This printer-brand command is used to switch the special character
set Commodore uses to the standard ASCII character set. If you use a non-
Commodore printer and do not include an OTHER instruction in every printed
document, some characters will not print correctly.
If you use a printer made by Commodore, there is no need ever to use the
OTHER instruction.
#PAGE
Lets you print the page number at the bottom of each page. You can precede
the #PAGE instruction with a SET#PG instruction to start the first page number
to any number. The #PAGE instruction automatically increments the page
numbers as each page is printed.
Use the NO#PAGE instruction to turn off the #PAGE instruction.
PAGELEN
Lets you limit the number of lines that will be printed on each page. The value
of PAGELEN (PAGELENgth) can be any positive number that is less than the
value of PAPERSIZE. The default value of PAGELEN is 60 lines.
PAGEPAUSE
Stops the printout at the end of every page. If you are printing on single sheets
of paper (not connected fanfold paper), use PAGEPAUSE to give yourself time
to insert a new piece of paper after each page prints. The printing does not resume
until you press the RETURN key.
You might also, for example, use PAGEPAUSE to be sure the paper is
properly aligned as each page prints.
PAPERSIZE
Tells the printer you are using nonstandard length paper. The printer assumes
the paper is 11 inches long, which equals 66 lines on most printers, the default
