Radio Shack TRS-80 MICRO User Manual

Special
Functions
Auto
NL
(New
Line)
In the
following
cases,
the
printer
will
automatically
execute
a
new
line
function
under
the
following
conditions
(carriage
return
with
line
feed)
:
1.
In the
10
pitch
mode,
when
the
carriage
moved
over
to
the
136th
position.
2.
In the
12
pitch mode,
when
the
carriage
moves
over
to
the
163rd
position.
3.
In
the
proportional
spacing
mode,
when
the
carriage
moves
to
within
8
units
(8/60")
from
the
right
margin (right
margin is
13.6"
from
the
left
margin).
Note:
Auto
NL
may
not execute
at
these
exact
positions
(noted
above)
if
the
pitch
has
been
changed
during
the
execution
of
the
current
line.
Optimizer
To optimize
printing time
(more
efficient
carriage
movement),
when
every
a
function
code
(SP,
BSP,
1
unit to
6
unit
SP, LF including
NL,
BLF,
1/2
LF and
1/2
BLF)
is
encountered
in
a
program
within
10
milliseconds
of
each
other,
the
printer
temporarily
stores
these
codes
until
the
following
data is
transferred:
1.
Character codes
are
inputted.
2.
Function
codes
are inputted
with
intervals
of
10
msec
or
moe.
Then, these
above stored
function
codes
are
executed
at
one
time.
For
example,
when
10
LF
codes
are inputted
with
less
than
10
msec
intervals,
the
printer
will
automatically
feed
10
lines
at
one
time upon
receipt of
the next code
(not
one
line
feed,
repeated
ten
times).
