SET DEVICE
SET DEVICE determines whether @...SAY commands are routed to the screen
or the printer.
Syntax
SET DEVICE TO PRINT/SCREEN
Defaults
SET DEVICE is normally set TO SCREEN.
Usage
With SET DEVICE TO PRINT, the output from @...SAY commands is sent to
the printer. @...GET commands are ignored. An @ command that
specifies coordinates of lower values than previous @ commands results
in a page eject.
On some printers, @...SAYs may not appear until the print buffer is
emptied. To empty the buffer, issue an EJECT command or print a blank
line. EJECT resets the internal printer row and column values to zero.
Additionally, you can specify new internal printer row and column
values with SETPRC().
