APPENDIX
B
Software Notes
This
appendix
explains
how
to
use
four
popular
software
packages
on
the
I BM Personal
Computer.
We've
provided
step-by-step instructions
which
demonstrate
how
to
print
files and
how
to
activate
your
IBM
Comatible
MICROLINE
printer's
special features,
as
well
as
hints
to
help
you make
the
most
of
your
printer
and software. These instructions
are
intended
to
supplement
rather than replace those
for
your software package, therefore
we
strongly
recommend
that
you
review
your
software manual
before
trying
to
use
your
package
with
your
MICROLINE
printer. Your OKI
dealer can also
provide
you
with
USERS
TI
PS,
which
we
issue
frequently
in
order
to
inform
you
about
new
software
packages.
NOTE:
The
I-PRIME signal sent by the IBM Personal Computer causes the
printer to return to its default
settings-Utility
mode, 10 characters
per
inch,
and six lines
per
inch.
In
most instances, your computer sends an I-PRIME
signal when the software program
is being loaded. Therefore,
if
you wish
to
use the printer's switch controls to select other available IBM-Compatible
MICROLINE
print
features, you must use them after your software has been
loaded. This prevents the I-PRIME signal from ;;:;;;;riding your selections.
See page
73 for an exception to this procedure
in
the case
of
VisiCalc.
~II
print
samples in this appendix have been reduced in
size.
The symbol
<CR>
indicates a carriage return,
which
is
en-
tered by pressing the angled
arrow
key located on the
IBM
Personal Computer main keypad.
VisiCalc
Chapter
:3
and
Appendix
A
of
the VisiCalc User's Manual
explain
how
to
print
your
spreadsheet. This section
will
clarify that information and give a few examples.
